I repectfully think you may be overlooking two things: 1. While storing fewer bits may be objectively superior in one sense, it is overlooking the far more significant question of which helps a human understand and work with the equestions. Math is encoded into the universe, but our expressions of it exist for our own understanding. 2. We get a lot of choice in how we encode information, and that choice can change the number of bits used substantially. For instance: c = 2 \pi r c = \pi d c = \tau r c = 1/2 \tau d All say the same thing, but their lengths vary considerably.
