It's explained in Solo, and honestly I always thought that was the explanation too. He found a shorter route, it was always that simple.

It really is.

He could just admit he fucked up.

Or you could admit that y'all are creating a problem out of nothing

He says "If you watched the movie you'd find this obvious"
However, it seems most Star Wars fans disagree. I mean, this had to be explained in a follow-up movie, wasn't it?

Was this an actual issue outside of the Family Guy joke? I always understood Lucas’ intent.

It wasn't an issue so much, but just something you'd hear every once in a while from Star Wars fans. "He says parsecs, but parsecs is a measure of distance and not speed. They messed up that in the script - here's an explanation that actually makes sense, it's my head canon"
Then when Solo came out all those talking points got thrown out, since that "head canon" became actual canon
That's how I remember all of this going down at least.

If only there were "a lot of stuff in the way" in space, this would make sense.

Sounds like someone who can’t admit a mistake and found a “clever” way to make themselves look correct.
