Common mistakes
The user expects decimal 1 MB = 1,000,000 bytes instead of binary-based conversion.
Fix: Check which storage convention your workflow expects before relying on the result.
A unit label is pasted together with the numeric value.
Fix: Enter only the numeric MB amount if the tool expects raw numbers.
The user expects bit conversion instead of byte conversion.
Fix: Use a bandwidth or bit-based converter if you need bits rather than bytes.
