There's also the problem that 1U×3U=3U² and the fact that you wouldn't be able to add 3U² to 2U since the'd be different units.

- tomrod 5y agoAye, but 1^2 is 1,so it's a bit of a special wash. Like 0!.
- dhosek 5y agoThe problem is that U isn't 1, it's meant to be a unit, but then it doesn't behave like a unit in which case, why bother with it at all?
- BlackFly 5y agoThis isn't a problem in practice though, you just get "strange" constants with units equal to some negative power of U in your equations. The same thing happens when you move from electrostatic units to SI: suddenly Coulomb's constant appears. Many people advocate ESU for precisely that reason: no Coulomb's constant.
