Is possible, but is not what I mean. I mean anything large (on this scale, for us it's still tiny) will only ever cover a few of these spikes. bad analogy: Take a beach ball, and put it on a chess board. It will only cover very few squares, because "covering" (in the sense we use it here) needs surface contact. Again, I am not an expert on the micro-level, this is just extrapolation from the little bits I do know.
