If you were a civil engineer in Oregon and did not include units you would find yourself out of a job. There are enough calculations in metric and in English units due to difference in supply that you have to specify. There were some very costly examples of this that made our highway department...

Don't knock the star trek writers, after all half our society is based off of cool gadgets they thought up. My favorite three are the 3.5in floppy disk, the flip open cell phone and the tablet computers :)

I agree with IR, increase the money requirements if you don't get the information you need.
Also if I got a hand drawn sketch on a piece of copy paper and they complained that I wasn't magically done I would give them back a sketch on a paper napkin and ask for payment :)
