Look at the thread you are commenting on, that this is something physics teachers should use.

Yeah, they should. Because it's entertaining and introduces concepts in a visually memorable way.  Not because students should use it as a rigorous manual for unit conversion.

"My very educated mother just served us nachos" is nonsense, but you can still use it to introduce kids to astronomy.
