Hey, I don’t really know if there is any more elegant way to call theorist’s the attention, this is the only thing I came about with 😅

If there are any histologist or cell biologists among the Theory Team’s members ( biochemist here 😄 )  
I think that some insights from you would come in handy here [Size & Osmoregulation](https://forum.revolutionarygamesstudio.com/t/size-osmoregulation/1043).

As on the cell’s size limit to make the nucleus _energetically eficient_ the size considered

is probably a very good option. This is in agreement with some (though not very precise) calculations I made on [The Nucleus Paradox](https://forum.revolutionarygamesstudio.com/t/the-nucleus-paradox/1027)

> On the hand, if considering that, currently, the mitochondria is around 1.5 μm2 (equivalent to 2 hexes) and a human skin cell is aproximately 40 μm2, it would be 53 hexes. If considering this as the point where having a nucleus breaks even (which would be a very rough approximation) the multiplier would be 84%, thus the maximum number of hexes without a nucleus without suffering penalties would be 58.

So if anyone could help on this topic I think it would be pretty neat 🙂 😄

While this is fine, you can also ping them or post in the theory channel on discord.

There is the squared cube law which affects size and ability to maintain internal processes.
