Pi and Tau; ד and ה

There is discussion in the math community regarding the better way to define the circumference of a circle: either as pi-- 3 times the diameter, or as tau-- 6 times the radius.

Note the parallel to מלכות being represented both by ד and ה.
ד as the emergent culmination of 3- חג"ת.
ה as emergent culmination of ו in יהו"ה.

Note also that Vilna Gaon's derasha of pi from קו/קוה by ים של שלמה
[ 111/106 = 1.0471698  times 3 yields 3.1415  ]

will still hold true to the thousandth place for tau as well
[1.0471698 times 6 yields 6.28301 while tau equals 6.28318...]

[as a complete aside, it came to me that the duality of מלכות as ד and ה could very well be the issues of חומש מלבר which is רבע מלגו]
