90ks is probably round enough and close enough to a day that people
could use it as a day - it would be 25hrs, which I think people
have managed as a daily cycle relatively comfortably? 200ks is then
two days and two lots of 10ks, which would be an obvious next unit
down?
100ks is almost 28 hours. I don't know for certain, but I suspect
a flight accross 4 hours is enough to jetlag some people. That
probably means it's a little too long to use as a day.
