Was going to do a multi-TiB test, but found it easy enough to stop/start the Anvil app and refresh SMART manually every ~.67GB (2 seconds) when I expected it to turn over. First differential was 63.3GiB, second was 63.2GiB, third and fourth were 63.4GiB per 64GB jump.
I vote for MiB, GiB, and TiB calculation because that is what's used in Windows and seemingly everything except product labels. And MB/GB/TB can be interpreted as either 1000^x or 1024^x (hence all the confusion and puzzle solving in the past few posts) whereas MiB/GiB/TiB have one interpretation. Yes, 1000^x MB/GB/TB is easier to add, but I'm not sure how often that issue comes up or will come up with this testing. 
EDIT: Happened to get one of my drive's SMART 233s value to be within 2GiB of turnover (the two drives had identical values and are only identical for a 2GiB window)....going to run brief compression/write amplification tests now. May not be pertinent since my daily driver V2s are on an old firmware and in RAID, but who knows
