Only at a certain zoom that's true. But step back a little bit
and there are better explanations than physics to describe the
processes involved that are more efficient and effective. What
you're saying is equivalent to looking at the binary while
you're trying to read these words on facebook. Without the
additional rules (such as decryption, protocol specs and such),
the binary won't get you very far. Then again, my first modem
was 300bps. I could listen to it working and I could hear the
difference between a, b, c, d, e, f, g etc on the keyboard. I
wanted to be able to listen to the transmission and decode it
with my ears and I managed to get a lot of the letters down. But
300 baud was not to last thankfully. I'd rather take speed and
lose the ability to hear digital letters transmitting.
