    Afaik for storage it’s exactly what it says on the tin

    Right… the problem is the discrepancy from RAM and CPU where GB is 1024. There’s a disjoint between hardware where most hardware is base 2… then some other parts just aren’t. That’s my point. HDD/SSD manufacturers benefit from not getting onboard since they’re able to offer less and still be “technically” correct.

    I’ve never seen anyone use Mebibit, if it exists, which I’m not sure it does.

    It does exist, but it’s so fucking dumb to say (I always feel like I’m stuttering when I say the words) People probably just do everything they can to skip saying the words outright.
