Usage of metric symbols in English is to put the numeral before the symbol 
with a space between them. What should be the usage of symbols in Lojban (of 
course using symbols breaks AVI, but if a writeup uses {ki'otrefi'usnidu} a 
lot, you may want to use symbols)? Do you write "lo ml 750 botpi" or "lo ml 
be li 750 botpi"?
