I worked with networked attached storage systems at pib scale several years ago and we referred to things in gib/tib because it was significant when referring to the size of systems and we needed to be precise.

That being said, I think the difference between mib and mb is niche for most people

Speaking of significant Pib vs PiB is 8x. I assume you meant the latter.
