A football field is by far a better measurement than 3300 one pound bags of sugar.

It is not if all you know are football fields and not American football fields.

I still don’t know how they even compare.

That's why we use the %fill of an Olympic Sized Pool - doesn't matter from what continent the field comes, they fill the pool equally.

Aren't there significant differences in allowed depth (from minimum of 2m to maximum of 3m)?

[bch]

Good catch. We've run into a problem somewhere along this journey of comparing the compression strength of a snails tooth to the tensile strength of a spiders web.

[necovek]

So a snail's tooth can only hold a 2m deep worth of Olympic pool (sea)water, but it breaks before you get to a 3m deep pool.

Only if you don’t understand that 3300 one pound bags of sugar is 3300 pounds. What an enlightening conversation here. Crème de la crème of modern thinkers.
