    kWh has an intuitive reason. Watts are so small that you’d always calculate consumption in MJ and whatnot, and seconds are so short that you’d always be expressing time in ks. Using kWh will reduce the numbers to useful ranges and makes cancelling M and k unnecessary.

      I have a soft spot for units like watt hours and foot pounds. I find them very intuitive to explain.
