    Except the 17 square version holds less syrup than the 16 square version because you need to reduce the size of the squares to fit more of them.

      If you take the original 16 squares and reduce them each in half, you can have 32 squares. Doctorate now, please.

        You can take this to the limit and make a waffle with infinitely many holes, each infinitely small !

        It’s just crepes.

        If the squares are half the size, you get 4x the number of squares, assuming you’re measuring side length and not area.

            One square is the optimal waffle if you’re optimizing for syrup volume alone.

              I will put you to work testing this theory.

              Proceed with waffle preparation and delivery, I’ll be waiting, and will provide my own syrup. Please note all waffles are to be gluten-free, as my body hates me and the things I enjoy.

              If you serve the syrup in a cup, then the syrup to waffle ratio is infinite.

                I post this comment quite often, but a number divided by zero is not infinity, so the syrup to waffle ratio would actually be undefined.

                  Fine, as the quantity of waffle approaches zero, the syrup to waffle ratio approaches infinity.

                    This tracks because I’m always left with syrup on my plate after finishing the waffle. So I’ve independently verified your hypothesis.

                Why even have a waffle at all, let’s drink the syrup!

      For those who didn’t know you can just pour as much syrup as you like, regardless of the square count.
