and again mbtc is only temporary so why are you even fighting that mbtc should be made common, you have to realise that by the time all sites adopt it and had a few months to get used to it. that it will be replaced again.. making it a pointless chore
this is why there are many many many threads where the consensus is saying to got to sats and bits, due to the fact that in the few months/years for something becomes universally accepted and understood. it will still be around.... unlike mbtc
This "millibit is only temporary" doesn't prove anything. Here's why:
Any written document will last for a while.
It takes time until documents are updated and some documents are never updated because they have historic value, or are in some kind of archive (i.e. like web.archive.org).
It's never possible to update all documents at once, there has to be a smooth transition.
So, from this point of view, "millibit"
is already permanent in that it is mentioned in many documents that won't be updated.
Just to get the record staight:
I'd don't like millibits at all. It's an ugly word. I'd like to switch as well.
However, I've realised that it can't be ignored and there needs to be a transition without inconsistencies, i.e.
without things like "kilobit = millibit".We need to have a consistent transition plan without risk of ambiguities.That's what I'm promoting:
