    Yes, actually. I frequently read a number, then the unit, then re-read the number. Or I read the unit, then the number, skipping around a bit.

      I personally don’t have it that bad but I’ve similar thoughts about written units. I must admit I do prefer everything working the same and as such think the dollar sign in front is extremely cursed.

      I also hate how few people use the ISO 8601 date standard which is super intuitive and machine friendly. And no matter what there is no excuse for the mm.dd.yyyy format.
