What people usually misjudge
People usually over-focus on height
Height is the first thing your eye notices here, but height alone does not explain the whole comparison. Orange and Toothbrush also separate through footprint, thickness, or diameter once you stop treating them like flat outlines.
Familiarity can distort the comparison
When one object is more familiar in daily life, people often use it as the default unit and either overstate or understate the gap. This pair works better when you compare occupied space directly instead of trusting whichever object feels more familiar.
Key insight
Treat Orange as the reference unit and Toothbrush as the scene setter. Once that mental model clicks, the comparison stops being abstract and starts feeling physical.
