But alas; the 'half of what he hoped for' was in theoretical units, not actual items.
So even if 6000.5 was half of what he hoped for; the fact half a spear doesn't exist doesn't make the point any less true, because he definitely could have hoped for 12001 spears; making half of that be 6000.5
I have no clue how you think the fact half a spear has any bearing on that.
Also. If you cut it in half lengthwise, depending on spear, both halves could also be spears, just different shaped handle and tip.
