I was also trying to figure out why 2.27, and now when you said that I
think I know the answer. As most of us know, 1"=25,4 mm = 2,54 cm. It
seems like someone confused 1" and ½". INstead of doubling ½" to
2·1.27 cm, only the integer part was double and the decimals were kept
as they were, therefore 2.27 cm. That COULD happen if you think way
too fast…
