gollark: Specialized binary prefixes let you use base 2 if you want to for some reason but use the more consistent and easier to manipulate base 10.

gollark: Programmers like base 2, but all other stuff is mostly done in base 10 and the prefixes were designed around that.

gollark: Because it's the standard for other units and we use base 10?

gollark: For all other units, you use kilo/mega/giga for 10^3, 10^6, 10^9 etc.
