    I would argue that for that to make a lick of sense we would also be saying cows 100k, sheep 1.2m.

    So not handy at all when it’s the only outlier.

      Not sure why something has to extrapolate to every context you can think of in order to make a lick of sense, especially when talking about language and writing systems, which almost always have exceptions.

        Maybe that’s the problem, there should be a rhyme or reason so it avoids confusion.

        It’s weird people are advocating for random arbitrary rules instead of pushing for something cohesive and makes sense….
