we have to dig to the specs for tv size cuz the size of tvs is the diagonal screen area not the actual size

we use cubic centimeter for small displacement engines where the whole displacement is measured (is car) and cubic inches for the large ones where the displacement is measured per cylinder (ie trains)

yup, reciprocal area measurements are a pain
