yes , but that does not mean that they planned it to be exactly a certain height to the nth degree

I don't know. you don't know. nobody knows. But everyone is close enough

I'm sure that didn't concern the AEs

It may very well have been that height exactly.

But, assuming for the sake of the discussion that Khufu did know our inch....I don't think he demanded that it be exactly so many inches high.

I think they planned the base exactly, I think they planned the slope. They probably projected the height in cubits, but I very much doubt they considered anything more finite.
