Title: More Boxes!

How many boxes are there in the World?

There is a simple, logical solution to this riddle. No need to complicate things, eh?

All of them.

Except if "the World" refers to the Earth. Then you should remove a number of crates left by the Apollo mission on the Moon.

But my World is the Universe. I don't know whether it actually means something, but it sounds cool.

Hey this is smart. But: is it smart enough? that is to say, 'tis not the expected answer, which is pretty much cast in the same mold, and yet quite different.

I am uncertain whether or not you already provided the expected answer, having in mind your other ideas, which will echo like the blackness of eternity. It is because you riddlers don't like to give it away. Give! Give people! Give us the preciousss, my love . . .

All of them? But what 'bout those who were destroyed, and are not with us anymore? Show some respect for the dead boxes.
