And I think it gets more obvious once you compare two phones and see which one to buy. I can tell you immediately, between a battery with 3450mAh and 4200mAn there’s a 750mAh difference.
But i have to look twice at the numbers if it’s 3.45Ah and 4.2Ah and i want to see if it’s worth the extra $70.
Why 5000 mAh rather than just 5 Ah?
Batteries often have a rating like 3250mAh, which is arguably clearer than 3.25Ah, especially on a datasheet.

How is it arguably clearer?
It’s only clearer to absolute mongloids that can’t get their head around the idea of “bigger number better!”.
Marketing, it just sounds better. Any other answer is just an excuse.
