Two dimensions is 100% better than one.

That’s not true at all, mathematically. That’s why we have a measurement for co-variance or correlation. If two dimensions are 100 correlation, they can most definitely be reduced to one.

…but they’re not in 100 percent correlation in this case, and you’re naive if you think they are .

I agree and three dimensions is 100% better than two
