I added a section to the Units & Symbols that discusses pluralization of bitcoin and satoshis. It advises to:

  • Consider your target audience and how they treat plurals in their language
  • Be consistent with how you pluralize (or don't pluralize) within your product

Intended to close #902

Nice and simple addition. Only thing I'd add is to refer again to the Mozilla docs for the I18n API, like we do further up on the page. You can use Intl.PluralRules to tell you whether a unit should be plural or singular based on a locale. That way you don't have to guess (or impose your personal preference) as a designer or developer, but rely on an established standard/library.

How should plural and singular amounts of satoshis be formatted?
