The reason to require a unit for c: EVERY physical quantity is composed from a numerical value and a unit! In case you would like to use something called 'natural unit(-s)' as unit, this would be perfectly ok, but only if - say - 'nu' is properly defined. If you like to define 'nu' you would end up in a dilemma, because c is assumed to be 1 one these natural units. That would be a definititon, which is based on itself (what is not allowed). Such a 'circular' definition is something, which is referring to itself. Such definitions violate important principles of logic. TH
