Eh I can sort of understand it in this case - many people are used to thinking of things in amounts of kilowatt hours.
If your journey was 1200 kilometres people might look at you strangely for saying 1.2 megametres

I’d argue that’s only because km is a very ingrained part of everyday parlance. The use of a megalitre for example would not raise an eyebrow where I live.
Similarly megawatt and gigawatt are pretty common and for things on a global scale terawatts is not unheard of, I don’t see why it would be so different for TWh to resort to an arcane way of formatting it.
Don’t get me wrong I’m not autistic enough to not see your point, it’s just tilting to me to make these extra jumps. Esp. when Wh is already a cursed unit
