Sorry, I was trying to show that this thread is heading toward
duplicating that discussion.

Well, I understand your points above as being *exactly* what I just
said.

As I said before my comments, I was primarily trying to summarize the
resolution of the prior discussion and the rationale in a productive
way since it sounded like this thread was heading in the same direction
as the previous discussion.  So this present thread about using "mm"
internal units is really going to be resolved when the nanometer-unit
solution previously identified is actually implemented.

Regards,
Colin
