Why can't 4 dimensional objects exist in 3 dimensions without being a flat slice of the whole? Are apples just too "fat" from a 2d perspective? Is there no way to compress something to "fit" into lower dimensions?

Because 4 > 3.

Yeah: getting rid of one dimension.

Pretty sure they can at the right angle. It's more about intersections in the plane.

So there's just no way a higher dimensional thing/shape can ever truly be visualized/assessed in one lower dimension? We're stuck at tesseracts/shadows? Can't computers visualize/create higher dimensions using math? Why can't we see them then?

What if a 4d alien suddenly became 3d? How would they describe it? Would their brain be able to picture it?
