Why does the long reed unit have varying lengths?

Because the long reed was used historically in different regions and times, its exact length changed depending on local standards and periods.

Is centiinch a standard international unit?

No, centiinch is an informal unit representing one hundredth of an inch and is not widely recognized in international standards.

Can I use this converter for legal land measurements?

Conversions should be used cautiously, as the long reed varies historically and centiinch is informal, which may limit use in official legal documents.
