Description

A documented string value such as inductance="10uH" is emitted as a string even though SourceSimpleInductor.inductance requires numeric henries.

Expected: parse the unit string to a numeric henry value, or reject it.
Actual: a string reaches Circuit JSON.

Research direction

Start by running the standalone inductor repro and inspect the core path that produces Circuit JSON for SourceSimpleInductor.inductance. The work is done when the documented "10uH" input is either converted to numeric henries or rejected before a string reaches Circuit JSON.
