// conversation => convert. Because this has nothing to do with discussions.

// If it's done as the first step we lose a lot(!) of precision.
// As an example 0.004 inches was rounded to 0, then converted to metric
// (still 0) and then inserted. Extremely wrong.
// Also 0.01497 miles gets rounded to 0.01 (33% less!) and then converted to
// metric. The result is 0.01 * 1.609344 = 0.01609344, way more digits than
// before we started! This looks extremely precise with 8 significant digits,
// but it's actually only 1 since began by completely destroying our initial
// number. Correct convertion should have the same number of significant
// digits as the initial number (4). But some numbers, like 1 inch, might
// actually be exactly 1 inch, or 2.54 cm. Rounding 1 inch to 3 cm seems a
// bit wrong. It's unusual that 1 inch is written like "1.00 inches" even
// if that precision is intended. So a flat rounding to 2 decimals after(!)
// choosing a good prefix (and scaling our number by the prefix) should work
// for most cases.
