It’s a sad reality now, 1Mwh is sloppily called “1MW” when it’s about energy, but “1MW” when it’s about power. It’s just like the ship sailed on 1 kilocalorie.m being called “one calorie” I think we can give up on this one as well.

It all gets confusing when integrating power over a strange quantity of time. I wish we had some kind of rational unit to quantify energy

Joules? Maybe you're facetious but it's hard to tell over the internet.
