Sorry about the important changelog, and thank you for reviewing and adding.

I agree.

As you pointed,
I think there would be at lease three options.

1. Separate those use.
* Ki/Mi/Gi: for general IT related sub units.
* k/M/G: for storage device amount (and CPU freq?).

It is because storage amounts are written in KB/MB/GB traditionally,
causing 1,000 and 1,024 sub unit mixing problems, as you know.

The problem is CPU freqs; I'm not sure those are 1,000 radix or 1,024 radix.
(It seems 1,000...?)

2. Make it simple (SI subunit, 1,000 radix only)
* k/M/G: for all.

This would be nice, considering it is Debian "Edu" doc,
the world of general science, SI unit, 1,000 radix world.

3. Make it simple (1,024 subunit only)
* Ki/Mi/Gi: for all.

This would be preferable since it is about IT tech doc.

In short, I'm confused. Perhaps #3 is easy and nice.

Absolutely; and I need time for this obviously.

Thank you for your comment.

Since I made my hardware (storage) replacements,
I'll check clean-install "main server" again in the near future,
and then make those entry names be back in English (for the time being).

Regards.
