RE: Working with units
Yes, you do. It is all tied up with the Prime concept of a measurement.

Pretend you are the calculator, you see 4_min + 3

What do you do? Should you assume that 3 is minutes and add them? Use a default time unit of fortnights and add that? Give an error saying that you don't have enough info to solve the problem?

1 and 3 are probably the most reasonable, the Prime chooses 3. If you don't want to use units, leave them off. If you want to work with them, they are required.
