Also, everyone assumes human scale. Why wouldn't an alien craft be half an inch long?
There's a passage in the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy about that, if I remember right. Some alien species is grievously offended by something Earth does (unknowingly). They marshall their proudest battle fleet and commence an invasion of the planet. However, "due to a small miscalculation in scale, the entire fleet was swallowed by a passing small dog."
