No it's important to be accurate. What if your nan's got directions to take a sharp right down the hidden driveway after the deep blue planet, but she can only see pale grey planets??? Hmm???

If it's so important to be accurate then use more accurate descriptions of where you are sending nan!

This is why she's always late to things, because you keep giving her abstract directions like look for the deep blue planet.

She was looking for the planet from whence came the chess playing supercomputer that beat Garry Kasparov.

Man, you know Nan's not allowed within 500 parsecs of that place. Do you want Nan to go to space jail again?
