Why doesn't JADEC just fuck off and use GiB like you're supposed to?

Fuck you. Metric is inherently base 10. Stop trying to apply it's conventions to base 2.

Why doesn't ISO (and anyone else who thinks this is okay) just fuck off, ban the usage of kibibibibytes and stop memeing muh SI into this? That was the orginal way, which worked perfectly well until some bumfucked retard decided that SI-compliant terminology is more important than practicality. And now we have people thinking it's acceptable to sell 3.7ish TB drives as 4 (((TB))).
