#    Both is best, since it's not always possible to infer
#    one from the other in code.
#
#    When a computable unit is provided, UCUM (http://unitsofmeasure.org)
#    is always preferred, but it doesn't provide notional units (such as
#    "tablet"), etc. For these, something else is required (e.g. SNOMED CT)
