RL:
The small discrepancy is not a reason for doubting the outcome of unit lengths or accuracy in ratios.
Petrie adds +/- 3" to most measures and that throws a wrench into any individual's work who is seeking a "perfect" measure for the pi value. Perhaps these individuals do not realize that 4000+ inches is 330+ feet, or 110+ yards or 100+ meters chiseled through bedrock and we are tossing and turning over a handful of inches...go figure...!

Best.
