Maths symbols and unicode-math input inside siunitx commands
Clash Royale CLAN TAG#URR8PPP
What I’m trying to do is to input Unicode characters directly inside siunitx commands, like SIrange≳9≈40kilogram. But it does not work and I get errors like ! Package siunitx Error: Invalid token '≳' in numerical input..
Looking further, inputing the standard command for these symbols does not work for all of them either: SIrangegtrsim9approx40kilogram; gtrsim breaks but approx is accepted.
Some MNWE:
documentclassstandalone
usepackagesiunitx
usepackageunicode-math
begindocument
SIrange≳9≈40kilogram\
SIrangegtrsim9approx40kilogram
enddocument
Does what I’m trying to do makes any sense? Is there a way to do that?

I think the parser needs to know those in advance to support them. It does not handle all symbols by default only common ones. The ones you present here are not really common

You can add other comparators to the default list:
documentclassarticle
usepackagesiunitx
usepackageunicode-math
sisetup
input-comparators =
< = > approx ge geq gg le leq ll sim % default
gtrsim ≳ ≈
,
begindocument
SIrange≳9≈40kilogram
SIrangegtrsim9approx40kilogram
enddocument

Awesome, thanks. I guess there are reasons for the initial list being limited to those symbols? Like symbols origins (TeX/LaTeX/amssymb…) for the others or something in that vein?

You could set parse-numbers to false to allow arbitrary code in the number fields:

usepackagesiunitx
usepackageunicode-math
begindocument
SIrange[parse-numbers = false]≳9≈40kilogram\
SIrange[parse-numbers = false]gtrsim9approx40kilogram

Or, you could declare the symbols explicitly in sisetup:
