If the whole point of tefillin is to be a reminder, what do I need all this crazy quasi- scientific precision for. What does it matter if there's a hairline crack in one letter.

In other words according to Korach the mitzvos are only symbolic, devoid of absolute performance parameters.
All animals are equal except for some animals who are more equal than others.

We crown Hashem as our King. Similarly, on Rosh Hashana arraigned against us are the accusing angels which have been created by our own transgressions.
