Better still, why not use an Art? MegaArt, picoArt, half an Art etc.

if an Angstrom is a unit (I'm told it actually was until recently, even with a funny little o on the A :)) and the Becquerel is a unit, why not a Lyubimov? MegaLyubimov, picoLyubimov, five Lyubimovs, half a Lyubimov all sound ok to me.

Aww, c'mon folks. Do we really need to haze the poor guy? It wasn't even his fault!

For my part, I'm just glad I've got a last name not amenable to becoming a unit of measurement. Whew.

Could be anything repetitive and overwhelming. For example, after looking at
stacks of crystal trays all morning, I can say "I got swanned." hmmm, maybe
we should try the detergent screen....

Is a 'swan' a (new?) unit of measure?  And, if so, of what, exactly?

I kind of like it ;)
