Every node has a location between 0 and 1 - think of it as a position on
a circle. Keys and node locations can be mapped onto the same circle,
which makes it possible to say which of a given set of nodes is closest
to a given key. That's the basis for Freenet's greedy routing algorithm.

Why, so each user can choose a different arbitrary value instead of
everyone using the same arbitrary value?
