Speaking of having a lack of a unified mental model for power , when it comes to the closely-related problem of energy (for society) there are a dozen or more commonly-used units in use, extending to "a cubic mile of oil". I believe that partly as a result of this (and partly due to the magnitudes involved), even those who follow the literature can have a lack of intuition when reading different papers and articles. And that has consequences, e.g., how many MW-GW capacity replacement per day for an energy transition.
