Han's line about the Kessel run should have been fixed because the use of "parsecs" makes no sense (it's a unit of distance).
It was once subtitled to 40 lightyears here on TV which doesn't make anymore sense, LOL. Those subtitles were classic.
It can make sense in world of quantum mechanics which hyperspace must be.
Perhaps he plotted a short cut on the navicomputer that was less than 12 parsecs and thus the observer would consider the ship "fast".
Personally I never knew what a parsec was, and still have not looked at a dictionary definition. It made perfect sense to a 7 year old and still sits well with me. That scene was more about the transaction and revelation of debt, adding to character. More subtext in that single scene than found in the entire spoon-feeding PT. And I was 7 and I knew what was going on without having to have some cartoon character puke exposition about what a parsec actually was. The force also made perfect sense without further explanation.

Also, in my mind, "bad" dialogue is not the same as factually incorrect dialogue.
