?If conversion between month (synodic) to second and second to day (sidereal) is exactly definied, high precision conversion from month (synodic) to day (sidereal) is enabled.
Since definition contain rounded number(s) too, there is no sense for high precision calculation, but if you want, you can enable it. Keep in mind, that converted number will be inaccurate due this rounding error!

Definition of month (synodic) unit: ≈ 29.530589 days. Synodic month = Cycle time of moon phases (example, from fool moon to next fool moon). This period is not constant and it is longer than moon rotation around Earth (sidereal month), because moon and Earth moves together around the Sun.
Definition of day (sidereal) unit: ≈ 23 h, 56 min, 4.0916 sec. A sidereal day is the time needed for the Earth to rotate once around its axis so that the distant stars appear in the same position in the sky. This is ~4 minutes shorter than the solar day.
