Soap films are made of entire smooth surfaces. edit

What exactly does that mean? A soap film is made of an 'entire' smooth surfaces? Is that part of a soap film, or an entire soap film? What is the difference between entire smooth surfaces and smooth surfaces which are not 'entire'?

Exact or about the tetrahedral angle edit

Text says 4 borders meet at the tetrahedral angle, Image caption adds "about". Which is it ? - Rod57 (talk) 11:41, 9 October 2022 (UTC)Reply

Perhaps the "about" is meant to point out the distinction between theory and reality; how does gravity, for example, affect the angles? But I agree that "about" is not helpful here. —Tamfang (talk) 18:39, 9 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
