This is incredible.
We know from the culture that they used cubits, so people have used the pyramid of Khufu as a tool to give us an idea of what the cubit in Dynasty IV might have been, since it appears to have some pretty close values.
Then, the numerologists take those "close values", modify them to "exact values", then work it around so that they can show that the pyramid of Khufu is an amazing reflection of these exact cubits!
How RIDICULOUS!
The cubit measurements STARTED with Khufu's pyramid. You can't then use those measurements to say that they are proven by their existence WITHIN Khufu's pyramid. It's circular.
Analogy: My next door neighbors are elderly. They own a Jack Russel Terrier. I create the theory that elderly people are more likely to own Jack Russell Terriers. I then look around my neighborhood for proof. Lo and Behold, I find the only elderly neighbors with a dog own a Jack Russell Terrier! PROOF POSITIVE that my theory is correct!
Duh. It's a closed loop.
