+## FAQ
+
+1. Why all UDLs are prefixed with `q_` instead of just using unit symbol?
+
+    Usage of only unit symbols in UDLs would be a preferred approach (less to type, easier to
+    understand and maintain). However, while increasing the coverage for the library we learned
+    that there are a lot unit symbols that conflict with built-in types or numeric extensions.
+    A few of those are: `F` (farad), `J` (joule), `W` (watt), `K` (kelvin), `d` (day), `l` or
+    `L` (litre), `erg`, `ergps`. For a while we had to used `_` prefix to make the library work
+    at all but at some point we had to unify the naming and we came up with `q_` prefix which
+    results in a creation of quantity of a provided unit.
+
+2. Why dimensions depend on units and not vice versa?
+
+    Most of the libraries define units in terms of dimensions and this was also an initial
+    approach for this library. However it turns out that for such a design it is hard to provide
+    support for all the required scenarios.
+
+    The first of them is to support multiple unit systems (like SI, CGS, ...) where each of
+    can have a different base unit for the same dimension. Base quantity of dimension length in
+    SI has to know that it should use `m` to print the unit symbol to the text output, while
+    the same dimension for CGS should use `cm`. Also it helps in conversions among those systems.
+
+    The second one is to support natural units where more than one dimension can be measured
+    with the same unit (i.e. `GeV`). Also if someone will decide to implement a systems where
+    SI quantities of the same kind are expressed as different dimensions (i.e. height, width,
+    and depth) all of them will just be measured in meters.
