TEXT CHANGE: WORK ITEMS MODULE - 'VALUE' TO 'QUANTITY'

We noticed a slightly confusing terminology in the work items form (please see attached screen shot).

There is are a couple of columns with headers called 'estimated value' and 'actual value'.

Could these possibly be changed to read 'estimated quantity' and 'actual quantity' - just replace the word 'value' for 'quantity'?

I think that the numbers shown below these headers represent quantities rather than values so it would improve legibility for the users.

I appreciate these aren't headers that can be customized by the user, and it would require a platform wide update to change them, but if you agree that a change in terminology would be beneficial to all users please schedule that for update.
