  • That’s true in theory, but if you talk about megameters to a European you’ll get very weird looks.

    An engineer will understand what you mean, but still laugh at you.

    But it’s a non-issue for anything on earth, where you’ll have 40.000 kilometers at most. Not a lot of time is spent talking about x thousand kilometer.

    Any notion that a kilometer is “too small” is laughable.
