Bitrates complicate this, because they predate modern computing. It's information theory. Radio signal transmission genuinely can measure in partial bits. And all bandwidth is described in plain metric prefixes.
So you can have an 8000 kbps video, lasting one second, and it weighs 976 KB.

I know which one looks cleaner to me…
