You are being dense if you don’t think “a grain of salt” is used to describe something very small.

You are the sense one here.

First, your failed to see that it was clearly a joke, for fucks sake, I'm taking about kosher salt in that first reply to the post, but that doesn't change the fact that salt, regular salt that everyone has access to, comes in very different "sizes", and when taking about electronics miniaturization, one order of magnitude of a difference in size is a veeery significant difference, and when comparing a grain of table salt and a large grain of rock salt, we're taking about more than just one order of magnitude.
