From what I found in Wikipedia, the "kibi"-family of prefixes was not defined before 1998. There's a lot of computer history before (and after!) that establishing the use of kilo for 2^10. Calling this wrong outright is historyless. Perhaps instead we could say: This is a funny artifact of history, and it is contrary to the long standing SI-definition of kilo as 10^3. We have since tried correcting that mistake by introducing the prefixes kibi-, mebi-, etc. A better table could say: kibi = 2^10 ~ 10^3 = kilo ...
