Regarding the dk unit: https://tug.org/TUGboat/tb42-3/tb132hagen-dk.pdf
The es, ts and eu are discussed here:

In German, I call these "Spaßeinheiten" (units of measurement =
"Maßeinheiten"; Spaß = fun; "units of leisurement" might be a good
translation).
Apart from being fun they are also useful, for instance the "ts" (and
dk) make good framed offsets when making examples. Of the "serious" unit
is only use pt, mm and cm (and bp in the backend).
