I tend to try to name things so they sound right if you read them; even though they are used in aerial navigation, as far as I understand they are still called nautical miles, so to my eye nautical::miles reads right.
This isn't a big issue to me, but it does seem inconsistent. Yes, the unit is called "nautical miles", but would you also propose that "US survey foot" be US::survey::foot? The precedent you seem to have set with the other unit systems is system::unit. I think nautical::miles is inconsistent. --Michael Fawcett
