    Thanks for the interesting info! I figured it was used somewhere, just hadn’t seen it.

    And reminded me of the unit I saw once that I hate the most. Kilofeet… Not kidding. Apparently used in telecommunications as a unit of length for spools of cable, probably for similar reasons of easier math but couldn’t fully switch from the US standard.
