• 3

  If the Nautical Miles to Barleycorns result feeds a purchase or an engineering calculation, verify it once against a second source or a rough manual estimate so a small input typo cannot propagate silently into your final numbers.

• Direction is the classic slip: Nautical Miles → Barleycorns multiplies by 218740.15, never by 0.0000045716344. If the barleycorns answer is off by roughly that factor, the ratio ran backwards — confirm the arrow and re-enter the value.
