In many FAQs the small letter spelling is suggested, e.g.:

ntfsclone -s -o - <source> | gzip -c | split -a 3 -b 700m - <destination>

So IMO small letter writing for "MB" should be allowed, instead doc to explain, the small letters 
are allowed for "M", but not for "MB", seems to be difficult to communicate.
