That’s basically what Kibi et al is though. It’s Ki(lo) bi(nary) — kibi.

Yeah it sounds dumb, but it’s really not that different from your suggestion.

I disagree. They’re both inserting Bi as the distinction.

The difference is the GP focused more on the abbreviation, but the implementation logic is similar.
