Follow-up Comment #7, bug #46815 (project findutils):
I'm a decades-long professional programmer, and even I just found the present
behavior of rounding up very surprising, which is why I'm here posting. If I
can get confused, an ordinary user has no chance, and may well miss the fact
that the data they thought they might see is simply missing from the output.
If the semantics of "-size -1M" are to be preserved as-is, I believe it's
definitely worthwhile having a non-surprising alternative. Nobody wants to
type "-size -1048576c" instead of "-size -1M".
