It's always been like "you cannot compare values of different units" to me. Maybe we should start saying "you cannot compare kilograms to metres".

A kilogram is more than enough gasoline to move my car a meter.
`kg of fuel per metre` is division, not comparison. You can divide different units by each other. It isn't guaranteed to always make sense but it's very useful.
The result of division of two numbers is a comparison of those numbers.
