If a notation for numerical representation is pleasing, then
use it. That it was defined originally for small components
is neither here nor there. The telephone was designed as
a machine to aid the deaf. Does that prevent you from using
it in other spheres?

Resistors as oblongs were conceived by professors of engineering
who were no doubt quite good as professors, but hopeless at
software and so couldn't work out how to draw a zig-zag using
a computer.

I think you mean "k" rather than "K"?

But why do you use "R"; you seem to be in contradiction with yourself
here.

I suggest 7M025Hz
Oh here we go!
How long have we been encouraged to use THAT notation for frequency?
I haven't come across it before.
I still put the decimal point where it belongs in resistor values, the M,K
or R goes at the end.
And I still draw a resistor as zig-zag.
