I know Watts per hour is not the right way to phrase it but I feel it helps for those that don't know. Also, I just don't like saying Amp. Hours :)

Watts per hour implies watts/hour. Watt-hour implies a number of watts multiplied by a length of time. Also known as energy. Watts are power. Watt hours are energy. Two different things. Watts/hour is nothing.

Watt/hour is speed of power. It doesn't make any sense.

No, you misunderstand what it means in that case. Watt-hours are comparable to joules. 1 watt-hour = 3600 joules.
