This is a link post Civilisation, BBC documentary, 1969
On telly tonight, BBC4, 9:10PM.



History of everything, from the dark ages to the 20th century, in 13 x 1 hour episodes.

Some say it's the best thing the BBC ever made. Others point out they "forgot" to mention women.

This is a normal post They work fine now.
The auto-preview is a bit wonky though. Click edit then untick the “don’t use auto preview” box, then save the post.

Getting YouTube shorts to embed is a bit more problematic.

As a billing unit it makes perfect sense, for electricity anyway. Gas bills? Probably less so, but it does allow a meaningful comparison between them.

Sure it eventually cancels down to Joules, but that’s not an intuitively understandable unit.

I was very happy when they swapped to kWh for precisely the reason you said - you could directly get a feel for the relative costs, although for heating purposes it can be misleading if you don't account for boiler efficiency etc.
