You are correct. Points are not real. I meant length of space.

Couldn't be, could it? Points aren't real, a yard is an idea used for a 
cultural measurement. The thing real is the dirt and the ability to say that 
because of this idea this "football field"goes from this dirt to that dirt. A 
yard 
is a "notion" connected in this case to our sense of dirt, an ideation of dirt. 
  We don't usually think of it like that and to insist on it during the 
action of measuring the "football field"   would be pedantic.Or some word like 
that.
