hi r1w1s1,

it has been implemented in this way because of the following SI 
convention:

https://www.nist.gov/pml/special-publication-330/sp-330-section-5
(section 5.4.3 Formatting the value of a quantity)

same should be in ISO 80000-1 and NIST SP 811 / SP 330 (the US 
interpretation of SI)

however you are free to upload a patch for that specific small-screen 
usecase to the wiki!

regards
drkhsh
