By a square inch, they much mean a column of infinite height extending upwards. Saying they consume the grassy surface of Australia is a dramatic underestimate.

The ones in my garden only eat round inches.
Always bothers me that I can’t trust 90% of people (myself included) to properly state area, square feet or feet squared, very different scales.
Square feet are feet squared.
