Cannot convert quantity of unit 'b' to a scalar

Cannot convert quantity of unit 'b' to a scalar

b is reserved for bits, it seems. Confirm it by asking the value of b, which gives 1b. The assignment of b (or any unit) to the environment seems to work, since ls shows the value pair correctly - the parsing makes the mistake. Either remove the assumption that u === 1u or forbid assigning to units and anything else reserved.

Yes, thanks for the explanation @ivanbakel. This is already tracked in #29.

Edit: Small correction: b is for byte (bit it for bits).

This is now fixed (byte is now B, but insect throws an error if you try to overwrite it):

> b = 5
5
> a = 5
5
> a+b
10
> B = 5
Parse error: The identifier 'B' is reserved for a physical unit at position 6
