It’s not a time unit. It’s a rate. The rate is twice the rate of traffic on the internet. Therefore it can transmit all the traffic on the internet.
Ideas like traffic only make sense in the context of per-unit-time, because they’re fundamentally about a flow.
- Dylan16807 4y agoYes, it's a rate. The aspect of time is already baked in. Adding an additional unit of time is either redundant or means you're talking about acceleration.
