I'm not quite sure what you're asking. If you mean: should we tell
people that they can't use "4.9m" and should instead use "5017k"
instead, then I don't have a strong opinion.
Sorry, I should have included an example based on the patch
quoted
+The minimum size allowed is limited to 1 MiB. The default is unlimited.
+Common unit suffixes of 'k', 'm', or 'g' are supported.
e.g.

+The default is unlimited. Common unit suffixes of 'k', 'm', or 'g' are
+supported. The minimum size allowed is limited to 1 MiB (`1024k`). 

I swapped the sentence order to allow the scaled example of the minimum
to be after the explanation of the suffixes
Ah, I see. I don't have a strong feeling either way if you want to
prepare a patch.
