Now there is an easy proof that the rectangular-solid-wedge is the
maximum tiler
in 3D Euclidean.

And I shall invoke the 100-Model instead of the 10^500 Model simply
because
it is easier for me to write and refer to the boundary of 99.99 rather
than the boundary
of 999..9-9d999..9-9 which has 500 9s to the rightwards and leftwards
of the decimal
point d. It is easier to talk about 99.99.

So in Euclidean 3D, what is the maximum tiler? Well if we use a empty
cube box
container as Euclidean 3D whose sides are 99.99 long and if we had a
unit cube-wedge
which is begot from a cube slicing it at a diagonal. And proceeded to
tile the box with
these unit cube-wedges we end up with a last row-planes of 0.99. Now
since they are wedges
we can fit this 0.99 row-planes with these wedges and the total
density would be somewhere
from 90 to 99%. In the case of the 10^500 Model it would be a density
larger than 99% but
short of 100%. If the Euclidean cube box was exactly 10^500, then the
unit tilers of cube-wedges would be an exact 100% density since no
holes or gaps would exist after the tiling.

But here is where the rectangular-solid-wedge of unit volume excels
over the unit-cube-wedge
in that the rectangular wedge can fill up more of that end row-planes
since the rectangular wedges are long and thin, not short and fat. Now
how long and thin should the rectangular wedges be? That depends on
the Elliptic model and the Hyperbolic Model. Remember, to win
the contest of best tiler, it has to be the maximum in at least two of
the geometries. So if the
rectangular-wedge can beat out the cube-wedge in Euclidean, at what
length of long and thin
does the rectangular-wedge win over the cube-wedge in Elliptic and
Hyperbolic?
