I'm not entirely convinced this is better. We can't realistically match the SI standards here—I don't think users would really understand px*em⁻¹*rad⁻¹*s⁻¹ even if we could rely on Unicode characters rendering well everywhere. px*em/rad/s is explicitly called out as not recommended. We could do px*em/(rad*s), which does seem to be one of the allowed SI formats and is more clear to a naive reader.

Oops, I only skimmed through the doc and didn't actually read it lol

I like using parentheses in this case, I'll update the PR
