The speed of light thing makes me laugh so hard, as it's referenced to the speed of light in METRIC! To be specific the 1983 definition.
But hey, if ancient Egyptians were using a unit defined in 1983 aliens must have been involved right? No way they figured that out themselves.
Well that makes total sense to me. I thought it was well known that the speed of light as measured in metric units is actually determined by the placement of the pyramid, not the other way around.
We should use the speed of dark
Not a useful measure as it's too quick

The “UK Metric Association” would like a word. (In 2013.)
