Unfortunately, Tyrell is incorrect. https://www.replacementlightbulbs.com/ohmslaw.html which gives the equation:

  Life(actual) = Life(rated) x ( V(rated) / V(actual) ) ** 13

NOTE that 13th (!) power. Doubling brightness only requires a small voltage increase, but it causes the lifespan to be roughly 9% due to this law.

Hams have known about this for decades, where is it common to run 14V or 12V lamps on 6.3 volts for dial / panel illumination. I have a Drake 2-B receiver that uses this technique, and I have yet to replace the 2 bulbs that light up the frequency dial.

I'm pretty sure there is some movie math that you haven't considered.

Just like Han Solo made the Kessel run in 12 parsecs.

Lucas acknowledged the misnomer in 1977, saying that Han modified "the navigational system to get through hyperspace in the shortest possible distance"
