We'd call it an inaccurate and useless way to measure fuel. What if I told you I had a lifetime supply of cigarettes for myself? How many cigarettes is that? (zero in my case).

More useful is the quantity of fuel available at a certain price point. What we do with it at that price point is up to us, as consumption can be wildly modified.

In 1000 years, who knows where we'll be. Certain types of fuel might be nearly worthless then.
