Holy fuck, that is irritating. I was still in bed. Leaving it for posterity. Thanks for pointing it out. Even more irritating, I said each "billion" is a group of six zeros. Technical definitions aside, should have been "million".

Ever since I watched this Numberphile video, I've been disappointed at how widespread the "short" scale is.
