Until very recently I had never seen pressure in kPa. For atmospheric
pressure, the standard unit seems to be hPa. I realize that's a
less-normal SI prefix, but it happens to match mbar. But, I am seeing
kPa more tha last 6 months.
So, I wonder why you are choosing kPa vs hPa, and if that choice ends
up being a framework choice for everything. And how the rest of the
world deals with this issue.
