I think the general idea is that -k was a mistake, but it's standardized, and that we don't want to have options -m, -g, -t, -p, -e, -z, -y for the other sizes (among other things -t is already taken). -m is there only for BSD compatibility but we don't want to publicize it and we may want to take it back at some point.
