Okay. I take here the "any advice is appreciated" part.
AFAICS at the org babel calc evaluation the last value of the calc stack
gets dropped.
So your workaround is okay, I think. You can just write any dummy

Several times I made exactly similar experiences with ob-calc as you
mentioned (units, do what I want), nevertheless I decided to be
dependent of orgmode and I'd really appreciate to use ob-calc for
"literate calculation".
"Embedded calc" seems interesting but I refuse using more tools or
