Distance to the Musi
Regarding this, the problem is not that it is unsourced, but the distinction makes little sense unless we mention the speific point of the Musi we're talking about. Compare to a sentence like this: "The flight from Berlin takes ___ miles to London and ___ miles to the Thames." If the numbers are different it will be confusing to the reader unless we specify we're talking about a point outside London. HaEr48 (talk) 22:25, 3 October 2020 (UTC)
 * That's a good point - I've clarified the text. It looks like the mines were dropped a fair way downriver from Palembang, but the sources are unfortunately vague on where exactly. Thank you for your excellent edits to the article. Nick-D (talk) 22:29, 3 October 2020 (UTC)
