Is 98.2% a realistic purity ceiling for a GLP-1 receptor agonist given its chain length?

Stated plainly: 98.2% · a GLP-1 receptor agonist.

I have worked this out and I would like someone to find the error, because I suspect there is one.

My working so far, for the record, is below, and I am fairly sure the error is in the unit conversion rather than the algebra.

How many significant figures are actually justified here?
