Ummm, how about we don't, and say we did?
I have been here for quite a while and have never got used to mBTC, μBTC etc.
Expressing prices in satoshis works better for me, but I have no problem with 0.01 BTC or 0.001 BTC etc.

Instead of using denominations like mBTC, μBTC etc simply change the name of 1 bit coin to be 1 satoshi and let 1 satoshi be 1 bit coin. In other words if you currently own 10 bit coins they will become 10 satoshis worth 10,0000,0000 bit coins. I think this is the easiest solution.
I have a solution for all of you suggesting "the solution":
Stop suggesting solutions!
#1 there is no problem, use whatever floats your boat. Just consider if you are using bit and you have no way to change it, I will not use your service. I allready have 2 different meanings for bit in my head I dont need a 3rd.
#2 there will be an accepted term that will develop organically
My thoughts on your specific "solution":
Are you serious? This will confuse the hell out of people. Switching the meaning of terms with eachother is never a good idea.
