Why are units included in "Value"? #97

I understand the appeal, but it feels like extra noise on the schematic + it messes with SPICE setup. Is there something I'm missing in this design decision?

would you prefer capacitors/inductors in scientific notation, or with 9 zeros after the decimal place? Either way, having the units makes the schematic far more readable.
