When you say "define the value of pi" , what you mean to say is "determine

In my message I discussed both determining pi and defining pi, and tried to make the distinction clear. I also said (as you do) that one cannot define a value for pi; it is a value determined by the geometry of the universe. It is not possible for mere humans to "pick a value" for it.
