Yeah, it should be 2.4k in English. Can probably trade the 's' in "reqs" for the decimal point.

I was iffy about dropping the 's' from 'reqs' to get it to 79 (makes it sound like they've only violated one requirement, not multiple) but then I suppose the whole thing is that truncated/abbreviated by that point, it doesn't matter...


2.4k has the exact same number of characters as 2400.


On the other hand, "2.4k" is inherently imprecise, whereas you'd need "2400+" to be similarly imprecise.

You also save on the comma in "2,400".
