Does it really matter if you write down a length in squares or in cubes? 😂

    Cubes implies you're working in 3 dimensions as in 10 cm³

    It's definitely in the "lies to tell children to help them learn" category. The concept of length Vs counting is only just being taught here. The difference between dimensional cubes is a bit beyond most of them.
