We can change that, but last time we changed a default unit a lot of complaints came up that we broke something, because every item that does not set the unit metadata (or the state description at that time) changed its behavior.
I think if we can somehow expose the bindingās provided unit to MainUI so it could be used in the new unit field being added in all the places where an Item can be created it would address some of those complaints. In that case the unit gets set every time and the user knows what unit is set at the time of Item creation.
In that case, the biggest impact will be on .items file users. But those users have already taken on the responsibility to understand these things so I donāt think that should hold us back.
