Digital is nothing more than an analog device with too much gain and
hysteresis, where the output is stuck at either high or low. Dig deep
enough into any digital contrivance, and you'll find analog devices
operating in this way. The real world is analog. (Just ask any
analog engineer).

We've been here before, too. The real world is the real world
- it is neither "digital" nor "analog," which are terms used (at
least when used correctly) to refer to two methods of encoding
information about (or describing) the real world or some specific
real-world parameter.

And in case it makes you feel better about the answer, yes, I am
(or at least have been) an "analog engineer." (Or rather, an
engineer involved in the design of "analog" circuits and systems.)
