Keeping Units Consistent While Writing Technical Docs Tags

When writing technical documentation, consistency matters more than precision.

While updating a section that referenced physical dimensions, I realized the source material mixed units. Some values were in millimeters, others assumed centimeters without saying so.

Before publishing anything, I needed to normalize those references.

Rather than setting up a spreadsheet or script, I converted the necessary values on the fly — just enough to ensure everything used the same unit system.

solved the issue without interrupting the writing flow.

Once the units were consistent, the rest of the document was straightforward.
