-Ibibyte Mathematical Reference

On 2022, August 26th, I made a self-discovery regarding -Ibibytes. After examining the size of mebibytes and kibibytes, along with the 2 associated powers of 10 (2^10, 2^20) I made a discovery that all Ibibytes are based on powers of 10.

List reference

Bytes -Ibibyte prefix Power
1,024 bytes 1 KiB (Kibibyte) 2^10
1,024 KiB 1 MiB (Mebibyte) 2^20
1,024 MiB 1 GiB (Gibibyte) 2^30
1,024 GiB 1 TiB (Tibibyte) 2^40
1,024 TiB 1 PiB (Pibibyte) 2^50
1,024 PiB 1 EiB (Exbibyte) 2^60
1,024 EiB 1 ZiB (Zebibyte) 2^70
1,024 ZiB 1 YiB (Yobibyte) 2^80
1,024 YiB 1 ??? (???) 2^90
1,048,576 YiB 1 ??? (???) 2^100
1,073,741,824 YiB 1 ??? (???) 2^110
1,099,511,627,776 YiB 1 ??? (???) 2^120

And so on...
