Yes, I think it’s a question of use. I can’t think of many examples where you would quickly need to know the measurement to the nearest Mm. Maybe if for some reason you deal with a lot of lunar orbits? Diameters of exoplanets?
Any earth distances we need to know with greater precision, and any stellar distances are probably better measured in light years, etc.

Odometer readings
“I’ve driven 112.326 megameters” takes the same amount of time to say as 112,326 kilometers. 🤷♂️
