It lives in water with salt. The average ocean pH value is 8.1. It’s a brain coated with a thin bit of goo.
My stomach is about 1.5 pH.
You could easily go through a waterslide, but if I change the water to be hydrochloric acid, you’re not gonna come out as fresh as you went in. And most skin on the face and body has a pH of between 4.7 and 5.75.
Genuine question: what is the point of logarithmic scales? Why can’t we have a linear scale of 3 to 30 instead of 3 to 4? A linear scale works perfectly fine in most cases (for example the Scoville scale which goes from something like 3 for a green pepper to 20 million for a reaper), so why can’t pH do the same?

Bro, it lives underwater, in the ocean, where there’s sharks and shit. It doesn’t care about your stomach acid.

In addition, pH is a logarithmic scale, a pH of 3 is 10x more acidic than pH 4

Okay, but mine was funnier.
