    comments:
    - Supports area, length, volume, and time-based quantification.
    - Use SI units where possible; document non-standard units clearly.

      Preserved from prior description (commit 6e634651):

      "A unit of measurement for expressing quantities.\nCaptures the unit type (from MeasureUnitEnum), symbol, and optional conversion factors. Used as the range for has_unit slot.\n**EXAMPLES**: - Hectare (ha) for outdoor site area - Square meter (m\xB2) for building floor area - Linear meter (m) for archival shelf extent"
