It's a good idea. Literally. The killogram is an idea, now. It is possible to repeat the construction of the killogram, by reading a description of it.
No longer do we need to pass around a chunk of metal that is changing mass unpredictably.
Now you can write down the killogram and share it. Carve it in a rock face, and it will last thousands of years. Whereas the previous version has changed over a few centuries even in a hermetically sealed jar.
