Idiom story:

Qu Yuan, a patriotic poet, gave advice to the King of Chu many times. But the fatuous king of Chu not only refused to accept it, but listened to rumors and exiled him to other places. Qu Yuan was upset and asked for divination. He said to the soothsayer, should you be honest with the king or have false entertainment? Should we sacrifice everything for truth and justice, or grovel and drag out an ignoble existence? Should we fly high with swans or compete with chickens and ducks for food? ..... The soothsayer was stumped by Qu Yuan's question and said, I'm sorry,' The ruler is short, the inch is long' (the ruler will be short, the inch will grow), and God sometimes miscalculates. I can't answer your question. Thereby simplifying the dimensions.

Short dimension means that everything has its strengths and weaknesses.
