Unit conversions fail when prefixes are doubled (already milligrams, then treated as grams) or when two different quantities share a nickname.

Two honest ways to break this conversion: mix a prefix (milli/micro) with the base name, or convert a ratio as if it were a linear size. Recalculate after you fix the label. If the headline still looks absurd, this is the wrong pair.

Run the sample (Inch of water → Pound per square foot), then your spec number. If both headlines look reasonable, you probably have the right pair.

Print the inputs with the headline. A conversion without unit names is how shipping labels and lab notebooks go wrong.

When this conversion misleads

• Mixing milli and micro, or typing a prefix already in the unit name.
• Using this converter for a different quantity that happens to share a nickname (mass vs force, energy vs power, gray vs sievert).
