    The next bigger unit, the Hiclibyte, should be based on the size of all emails on Hillary Clinton's home email server.

    It is however commonly accepted that only line feeds consciously created by the president via hitting "Enter" should be counted, and line feeds that might have been caused by automatic wrapping in the email client before sending the email should be ignored.

    There is still some historical dispute if Clinton used a Windows computer to send the email, that would result in 2 bytes per line feed character, overall 8 more bytes. So a Cliwibyte is 396 bytes.

    Translating in between ClB and KiB is really easy, just multiply by 2.6392! If the mathematical operation would result in fractions of bytes or even bits, the result should be rounded up to the next byte, because bigger is better.

    There should be a new unit, the clibyte, based on the number of characters in the text body of the first presidential email, sent by Bill Clinton to Carl Bildt in 1994. That was 388 bytes, including whitespace.
