This is an equally ignorant quote:
Of the three, silver is the most affordable for the most people.
Bitcoin is about $70,000 a coin. Gold is about $2,500 coin. Silver is about $35.00 a coin.
As if you must buy a whole bitcoin, or one ounce of gold, for that matter.

IMO the unit bias is one of the reasons why people shitcoin. "Oh look that coin.. it's totally affordable at 0.001 $ a coin unlike bitcoin.. if it ever went to 1 $ I will be rich". Very similar to pink sheet stocks. I mean people realize they are buying crap, but the psychology combined with pump&dump schemes still makes them do it.
Therefore let's standarize the use of sats (or uhm bits).
