My answer on that one is (which I believe to be consistent with SI/VIM):
"Add more until you can tell the difference between energy and torque."
(or, equivalently "the diff. between an angle and a count")    (01)

...which brings us back to "kind of quantity", something of which I thought 
would've been accepted for quite some time already. I'm confused ...    (02)
