But Uranus is much bigger...

True in the literal sense. As for the literary sense, I’ve been accused, on occasions, of having a big head and also of having my head up my @$$...

Well, you don’t recall.

“Mercury’s diameter is about 4800 km, while the Moon’s is slightly less at about 3500 km.”

... and I don’t call 27% “slightly less” !
