I disagree. I come from an engineering background. Everything is done by powers to the multiple of 3.

Something x 10^3 is a thousand somethings
x 10^6 is a million things
x 10^9 a billion
x 10^12 a trillion

makes far more sense and demonstrates that despite the US sticking to 'imperial' measures that aren't even imperial, they do have some useful ideas.

Indeed. Even now, a million million is rarely a number we use outside of pure science or (recently) IT. How would we whinge about billionaires if there aren't any?
