--- Comment #1 from Phil Sutter <phil at nwl.cc> ---
Hi,

Internally the input is converted into a single value for use by the kernel.
When listing the rule, this value is converted back into a human-readable
format using the most appropriate format. Since 60/m reduces to 1/s, the latter
form is automatically chosen. I don't think it's worth carrying extra data to
retain the user-given unit.

Cheers, Phil
