No, they interchanged miles with m, and in a weird unintuitive way at that. m isn't even standard for miles, it's standard for meters, and just before that miles was written instead of shortened - it's not just confusing it's also terribly presented. At least yr is intuitive, nothing about m is easily understood even given the context (which is why so many other people are complaining about it).


Okay, though that sounds like you're actually objecting for a different reason than inconsistency.

But I will note that "m" is used in the common distance-over-time unit of mph.
