Well shore I can, partner!

Pretend you are a home builder. Now, someone comes to you and says: I
want my garage to be 23 feet deep. So you build the house, and screw up
and make the garage 22 feet deep. OOOOOPS!

Now, pretend you are a different builder, and the buyer asks you to
build his garage 8 meters deep. Now you build the house, and because
you are making the garage 8 meters deep, instead of 23 feet - it gets
built properly. HOORAY!
