    Thanks, friend :)

    I know how it comes to be, I just think it’s stupid.

    For example, kW times h is not the same as kW per hour. That’s why kWh means kilowatt times hour.

    If I wrote ms to denote meters per second that would create massive confusion.

    I guess you’re talking about psi.

    (No offense to you, dear Buffaloaf, I just looked it up and thought I might share).

    For everyone of the 191 non-USA countries, 10 psi is 0,69 bar or 690 hPa. That’s pretty low.

    By the way, why is psi written in such a weird way? It should be lbs/ in^2
