I had a physics professor that would allow solutions to problems to be submitted in any unit measure. Since he had TAs and grad students doing the grading it was no skin of his nose. Lots of furlongs per fortnight velocity measurements. Units of photon energy to describe frequency. But when you describe mass as a quantity of molecules of a huge polymer it really got the TAs steamed. Your homework would come back "smelling funny". The mass one didn't pass muster because you couldn't invent a new unit of measure, you had to use a published one.
