Description
Python doesn't have a units library like C++ or Java does, but it could at least have a utility function for the Telemetry API to log a value with an associated unit string, which is also supported in Java:

Research direction
Start by locating the Python Telemetry API and compare its available logging helpers with the linked Java UnitTelemetry implementation. Add the equivalent utility for logging a value with an associated unit string, then verify that it is exposed through the expected Telemetry interface and covered by the repository's existing tests.
