IMHO it could lose some of the silly charm with scientific notation.
But having the numbers aligned for easy comparison would be great.

To OP: I really like this! Will be guessing some with my kids who are around 10 year old. Combined weight less than an elephant.
- last_one_in 5y agoOP here. Thanks! Will be testing with my 6 year old later. He actually hasn't seen it yet. Yeah, I agree. I wanted something that everyone can read and where the physical size of the number on the screen gives a great idea of the size (in terms of order of magnitude). Alignment is a great idea. I'll have a think about that one.

- last_one_in 5y agoOooo, I like that. That's really clear.
