Unlike children, and some adults, I don’t eat sand, be it in a heap or not, so I’m not entirely convinced that’s the right model either.
Interesting “paradox” though, as the initial premise of one million grains of sand being a heap falls over as it doesn’t specify the structure of the sand: which is what defines a heap of anything.
