 In
 https://github.com/torproject/stem/blob/master/stem/descriptor/router_status_entry.py#L553
 it says that it is `unit-less`, but i think it is not completely right.
 Tor code uses kilobytes:
 htps://github.com/torproject/tor/blob/master/src/feature/dirauth/bwauth.c#L191,
 https://github.com/torproject/torspec/blob/master/dir-spec.txt#L2387,
 https://github.com/torproject/tor/blob/master/src/feature/dirauth/dirvote.c#L2303.
 sbws and Torflow also divide by 1000 after scaling (which changes orders
 of magnitude):
