It is complicated : [1] The International System of Units (si), https://www.bipm.org/en/ measurement-units/. [2] International System of Units from nist, http://physics.nist.gov/cuu/Units/ index.html.

And one will never get it right (space or not, half-space?) nor consistent so using that instead.

I am not sure how times and hours, when to write digits and when in letter so I did not change much..

Did not touch the tables as ebooks on github actions seems to break when you look at them funny.

Great changes. Future idea: What about a macro that could automatically turn C into F?
