More fishy falsehoods.

Given that the thread I cited was about 30' reliable links _OUTDOORS_, 30'
hops are hardly "conservative". 20' is conservative. 4 x 20 = 80 and that is
best case with the nodes laid out in a linear manner. The real world will
likely be less precise. An 80' cube is not likely to provide adequate
coverage of the typical residence.

And, even with 30', the only way to get 180' is by sneaking in two extra
hops. 4 x 30 = 120.
