Oh, well if that's the only reason, I would suggest going back to px for the native user units! It looks to this non-tech-oriented user like using mm for the native units is making these things much more complicated (not to mention confusing) than they really need to be.
Is there any reason why I can't make a feature request in LP, to revert to px? Like is there some other reason for the change, or we're already planning to revert, or ??? I know it might or might not happen. But really, just to make the default doc match one single template -- this really is imposing a great deal of confusion for many users!
Thanks again for taking the time to explain all this!

Nothing. I think it's because the default template is A4 so it sort of made sense to use millimeters since A4 is defined as 210x297 mm²
