My example was entirely contrived of course, a less contrived one would be estimating how long a gas cylinder will last. The tank name plate might say it has 200 cubic feet (sigh) and you need to flow at 10mL/min. How many months does the tank last? I'm talking about quick engineering tasks, not theory.
BTW, the answer is about 13 months, whatever that is in eV^{-1}:

Which took me about 15 seconds to type. Just different use cases.
- kragen 5y agounits(1) can handle this but by default it gives you the answer in seconds. You have: 200 ft**3 / (10 mL/min) You want: months * 12.921493
