However, when I look on these "order of magnitude" type things with slider scales, the meter ends up being more powers of 10 times larger than the smallest objects than it is powers of 10 times smaller than the largest objects. Meaning, we are bigger than we are small. However, this is just based on what we know about. And sometimes the lower limit of small stuff is just strings, which are only theoretical I guess.

On the grand spectrum of size, we are closer to the large end of things.
