Re: Power/Phase to FFT Coefficients?

A better fit might be with scipy.signal since we already deal with units a
bit there. For example for STFT
<https://docs.scipy.org/doc/scipy/reference/generated/scipy.signal.stft.html>
and
Welch
<https://docs.scipy.org/doc/scipy/reference/generated/scipy.signal.welch.html>
we allow different normalizations and these typically directly relate to
units people care about.
