    The 12 parsecs thing is emblematic of the entire original and prequel trilogies. George Lucas just made shit up as he went.

      The problem with the 12 parsecs thing didn’t come from G-canon though. It was in extended universe, and later in the Solo movie, where the black holes explanation came in and removed the ability to interpret it as Han bullshitting.

        I mean in the original trilogy when han said it. I assume George wrote it having no idea what the fuck a parsec is.
