Ever since I got rid of seconds, and time for that matter, in units, I've had a concern that something about this conversion was wrong. So I tested it and got more comfortable with the beautiful way these numbers work and all of physics seems just fine.
There is one place, one blind spot, that I know about. That is the Lorenz equations. units and most of classical physics and conversion/physical constants operate from the perspective of their world line.
What I'm saying is that the units program has a major flaw; Units is only valid within the current world line and frame of reference. A frame/world line moving at a different velocity than you does experience events differently (from your perspective).
Maybe we can build Lorenz transforms/conversions into units one day? How hard could it be?
