Looking at the documentation I see:
(possibly different) unit can also be specified explicitly. Valid memory units are <literal>kB</literal>
(kilobytes), <literal>MB</literal> (megabytes), and <literal>GB</literal> (gigabytes); valid time units are
<literal>ms</literal> (milliseconds), <literal>s</literal> (seconds), <literal>min</literal> (minutes),
<literal>h</literal>(hours), and <literal>d</literal> (days). Note that the multiplier for memory units is 1024,
not1000.
The only value to being case-sensitive in this area is to allow
upper/lower case with different meanings, but I don't see us using that,
so why do we bother caring about the case?
