deluge-console output changed in v2

[basher]

Recently updated deluge from 1.3 to 2.0.5 and noticed deluge-console output format has changed.
Most importantly, the size units.

They used to be reported as KiB, GiB (eg gibibytes & kibibytes), but now they're listed as K, G and so on.

1. why was this change introduced?
2. are the units still the same as they used to be under 1.3, ie kibibytes instead of kilobytes?

1. Don't know sorry, but guessing because takes up more space(already does calculations upon how long line will be).

2. Yes, just 'shortform=true' defined in the fsize function call - still "1024" divides.
