+In aggregate, the `UnitSystem` data generated here constitutes a new universal standardization for dimensional analysis, which generalizes upon previous historical systems up to the 2019 redefinition and unifies them in a common `Universe`.
+This enables a more precise and generalized standardization than the 2019 redefinition, which was comparatively limited in scope.
+Specified default `UnitSystem` values are to be taken as a newly defined mutually-compatible recommended standard, verified to be consistent and coherent.
+A `UnitSystem` can only be useful as a measuring standard if it can be scientifically reproduced, so the data here has been implemented in several important scientific programming languages (initially in the Julia language but also Wolfram language and Rust langauge) as well as presented abstractly in terms of dimensional formulas.
+
 > In fact there is nothing transcendental about dimensions; the ultimate principle is precisely expressible (in Newton's terminology) as one of *similitude*, exact or approximate, to be tested by the rule that mere change in the magnitudes of the ordered scheme of units of measurement that is employed must not affect sensibly the forms of the equations that are the adequate expression of the underlying relations of the problem. (J.L., 1914)
 
 Specifications for dimensional units are in the [UnitSystems.jl](https://github.com/chakravala/UnitSystems.jl) and [Similitude.jl](https://github.com/chakravala/Similitude.jl) and [MeasureSystems.jl](https://github.com/chakravala/MeasureSystems.jl) repositories.
 The three packages are designed so that they can be interchanged with compatibility.
 On its own `UnitSystems` is the fastest package, while `Similitude` (provides `Quantity` type) and `MeasureSystems` (introduces [Measurements.jl](https://github.com/JuliaPhysics/Measurements.jl) uncertainty) build additional features on top of `UnitSystems` base defintions.
 Additionally, in the `UnitSystems` repository there is an equivalent [Wolfram language paclet](https://reference.wolfram.com/language/guide/Paclets) `Kernel` and also an unmaintained Rust `src` implementation.
