I know there's XKCD for everything but I wonder if there should be.

Considering how "on the nose" this one is, I'm not sure what point you're trying to make.

No. I bet you could make a slightly better one and increase diversity in the online humor world.

It's in the name of efficiency. Instead of repeating the same conversation about, say, standards, you can just say 927 (which is 900, Yoda's age, plus 27 which is memorable because of the 27-club. Or also 3 squared = 9 and 3 cubed = 27), and everyone will know what you're talking about and you can skip that bit of conversation.

And in small memory. I once had to prepare a church address list on a Psion 3 or 3a with 256kB of memory. That was total memory, used for both execution and battery backed RAM disk. I entered the addresses in to a database, exported to a spreadsheet for sorting and putting the columns in the right order, then exported to word processor document for formatting, and printed over IRDA. No third party sw required. And the thing was so stable even with third party sw that it was quite likely that it was never rebooted before it was replaced years later.
