Default wb performance graphing

as part of the ever slightly closer to completion wb Test Methodology article,
am intending to use this graph:



it works well, but my question is:
what are the 'best' (-> most useful) units for the x axis ?

being a mossback, kPa are quite useless for me
psi I can understand (and use for measurement, the indicators are scaled that way)
BUT pumps are typically described in 'feet of head'
or 'meters of head'

as many use Eheims, should I use "m H2O" ?
if so, should it then also be retitled "C/W" vs. Head Loss ??

- understanding of course that a portion only of the pump's capability can be allocated to pushing the coolant through the wb
