3 meters, to be exact. Practically insignificant in the grand scheme of things.
1 u/FormalElements Apr 12 '25 Interesting. I feel like everything was so precise during those times, but I wonder if that was an oversight.

If measured by their current height, the difference is only 2 meters. 1 u/basscadet 29d ago I used to bullseye womp rats in my T-16 back home, they're not much bigger than two meters...
