    I appreciate that they continued to use a different fruit as a measurement even though there’s no reason why they couldn’t compare the kiwi to some other class of object.

      I compare everything to hail. Gold ball sized hail, base ball sized hail, pea sized hail… It makes it really easy because you don’t need to think of different objects.

        wouldn’t you need to do ‘hail sized pea, hail sized baseball’ etc? otherwise you are comparing the size of hail to other objects, rather than other objects to hail
