I’ve thought about the same thing recently. I use Numbat as my main tool for calculations, and the main reason I use this is exactly this—units offer a way of “type checking” and finding errors. If I’m trying to calculate time it takes to upload an image and I get bit × px / s as a result, I’m probably doing something wrong.
