At least, all of the examples of problems arising from physical units are "pt", not the other units. That suggests that designers won't get confused, since they don't actually use "in", "cm" or "mm". Rob -- "He was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon him, and by his wounds we are healed. We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to his own way; and the LORD has laid on him the iniquity of us all." [Isaiah 53:5-6]
