Agree wholeheartedly with (some of) alistair's comments.
Eng and SI are NOT the same thing. They are only related because they use the
same multiples (in most cases). They are definitely NOT duplicates!
SI allows for other exponents as well:
E.g. Hecto (h prefix) is E+02; Deca (da) = E+01; Deci (d) = E-01; Centi (c) =
E-02; Only for the rest (up / down) the 3 digit multiple applies.
See the WikiPedia page (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SI_prefix). It may be
beneficial for implementation to have the SI issue as dependent on the Eng
issue, simply because part of it would become easier to implement. But these 4
situations then need to become exceptions, maybe as an option since they're not
always used in all industries. E.g. architecture usually uses millimeters, but
sometimes centimeters and / or decimeters depending on location.
BTW, the SI prefixes are already used in the COVERT_ADD function. It would be
nice to also then be able to display it!
