i'm trying to show you know, both what we know, but also b the limits of that knowledge. Can whales hear each other over those long distances? Maybe? Can they communicate? Harder imagine, but not impossible to imagine. I think if you didn't do any of the imaginative stuff, the book would just be joyless. Whereas if you just went on like flight in fancy at the time, it would feel like almost like a work of science fiction. But i think this is the kind of thing that we should be thinking and it seems like there's a balance to be struck.
