Description

Unitful seems to follow the ordering of dimensions in the MLT system, but if forces are defined in Newton it does not follow the order of the FLT convention.

The unit `Nm` for moment is displayed as `mN`

Research direction

Start by locating the unit-formatting and dimension-ordering logic in Unitful.jl, then inspect any existing tests for displayed derived units. Reproduce the `Nm` case and verify that a moment defined from Newtons is displayed as `Nm` rather than `mN`.
