Spoilers - Distance to Qo'Nos (Kronos), a math question

This has been an issue before in Trek. Remember when the Enterprise E got from the Romulan Neutral Zone back to Earth very fast in First Contact?

We don't know how long the trip took. Of course, the Romulan Neutral Zone is pretty close to Earth since the war occured early during space exploration. Maybe Starfleet parked the Enterprise close by just in case.
 
Distances in both of these films doesn't really make sense. But then again finding a way to travel at light speeds is basically impossible anyway. So traveling at faster than light and getting from earth to Q'onoS in a few minutes and back, it's not that bad compared to other things.

Why does everyone who talks about "minutes to reach Kronos" seem to be totally unaware of what film editing is?
Even if it's hours, that's still not much time considering in the past it's taken days to reach both. But again I see this stuff as minor because traveling through space at faster than light speeds is itself impossible and if you somehow could do so you would be traveling through time.

That was then.
