AOL :-)
Getting agreement on this could be tricky.
The package I'm looking just now has:
12 powers of 10
7 basic SI units
2 'supplementary units
58 'derived' units
23 'other' units
282 "/", "*" & "**" functions
and a couple of dozen elementary math functions!
I understand how these things can add up. Unfortunately, I'm not sure
of the copyright status of this package (I think it is based on the
"whitaker" package, but I have made it generic and played around with
adding some generic formal packages.
There is also a sibling package containing conversions from a couple
of dozen non-SI units.
