not to insult your sig says you are a scientist so you should know that, that is completly wrong. i am not a fan of Significant Digits, but 1.0cm and 1.00000cm are not the same.

i do agree with your last statement. everything does have an absolute measuer, but measurment isn't absolute.

similar to what RatherThanWords said, only concepts and ideas are absolute because they are not applied.
