"since people have been doing wrong for years we should just let it
broken until end of time and never try to fix it", sorry no, we are
aiming at better than that, that issue is being worked on and not only
by Ubuntu

from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_prefix

"Since Mac OS X Snow Leopard, Apple's Mac OS X reports sizes using SI
decimal prefixes (1 MB = 1,000,000 bytes).[92][93]"

you can see an increasing number of softwares and hardware correctly
using those units
