one of the best changes I did was get a little plastic 2 tbsp spoon (old drink mix scoop) for measuring the laundry detergent.

we have early scribal copies of this oral transmission, and, knowing the techniques of oral performance, it's likely that bards, poets & orators would essentially 'localize' for the audience.
Thus the elements of daily life of Tatooine, Alderaan, or even Toprawa.
