second(1)' is much uglier than '9.8 * metres / (second*second)' for no apparent gain.
If '9.8 * metres / (second*second)' is a valid expression, then 'metres/(second*second)' must also be a valid expression. What is the result of the latter?
Is it a legal expression? It's plausible that it doesn't know the desired representation type (double, float, etc).
meters/(second*second) == unit<acceleration_type,SI::system>() Matthias
