Tell that to BIPM. Those are all official SI measurements and
internationally recognized. Ignoring them is to bury your head in the
sand.

What is the point here? I started the survey and quit when
encountering all the arcane prefixes. If the goal is to educate
folks about the simplicity of SI, this is a great way to botch it.
No real person in a metric country will ever know what a
yota-whatever is, and it is not necessary. If we could get people
to just deal with liters, kilometers and meters, and kilograms (and
a few of their variations that we all use), that is all we need to
do. The results of this "survey" will be meaningless, regardless of
the good intent of the person who created it.
