And, before people go off and create C++ classes for tracking this stuff,
they already exist. However, most of them have this irritating habit
of believing that the base dimensions only occur in integer quantities.
They have trouble with ...
Spectral noise = Volts ^ 1 * Seconds ^ 0.5 aka V/rtHz
Signal strength = log (Volts) + log (Amps) aka dBm
