Unit mismatch is not a complex problem, but it shows up constantly.
I usually notice it when reviewing documentation or cleaning up incoming data.
Some values are in metric, others are in imperial, and the source rarely explains why.
Before doing anything meaningful, I have to make sure everything is speaking the same language.
In those moments, I’m not looking for a full-featured tool or automation.
I just need a quick way to align numbers without breaking focus.
Sometimes I keep a simple unit reference open in another tab.
For quick checks between millimeters and centimeters, something lightweight like https://mmtocm.net
is enough to move on and continue the actual task.
Once alignment is done, the reference disappears from the workflow again.
Most of the time, the real work starts only after this small step is handled.
