Missed opportunity for "fifteen parsecs", if only to poke the pedants to reply, frothing: "that's not a measure of time!" 🤪🤣

It's a cooking measurement on a technical challenge.

"Three parsecs of krumm flour? Three parsecs? Is that even a baking measurement? Bloody dark side! Are they mad?"

"Three parsecs of krumm flour. Haha. Well done Polhol'eewood. See, I happen to know that on Corellia a parsec is more than just a spacial measurement... They use parsecs to measure... well, almost everything."
