I suggest we stick to some known ways of denoting the multipliers.
For example "m" is always ""milli" which is 1/1000-th whereas "u" (imitates greec "mu") stands for "micro" which is 1/1000,000-th.
One mF is a whopping 1,000 microfarads.

It is, after all, engineering that we are dealing with here and accuracy is important.
