    Lengths such as inches, feet and miles they are all unrelated to one another so here is my proposal.

    Instead of the kilobyte range we would have a bet. This is the size of the extended ascii table off 255 ascii characters that are 7 bits each or 1785 bytes. The bet comes from alphabet.

    Instead of megabytes we have the img which is based off the average size of a photo at 1.44mb which is only coincidentally the same size of a floppy disk.

    Instead of a gigabyte we have the bloat which is derived from total install size of Windows XP at around 2.4gb.

      Windows 11 installation requirements in Crown English:

      • 27 bloats of free space in the hard disk drive;
      • 1⅔ bloats of RAM;
      • Processor with at least of 60 milliard beats per minute clock rate;

      In addition to that we may add a Jude because a the average MP3 file of Hey Jude by the Beatles is around 8 MB.
