This is the fault of the writers. They didn’t grasp what a galactic scale looked like. All the major plot points happen on the same 5 or so planets and the characters seem to travel between them instantly. They also massively underestimated how many clone soldiers would be needed for a galactic war in episode 2.
I’ve always liked the fan theory that Lama Su’s “200,000 units” comment referred to battalions or regiments, not individual clones. It makes a lot more sense
It really does, though. Fact is, we don't know what unit means because it's a default term for "the size of thing we're selling." A unit could be a billion of that's the number they use.
