There's intersection, but none of them is a superset of the other one. There 
are a few PROJ hard-coded units without EPSG equivalent:

    {"dm", "0.1", "decimetre", 0},                       // no EPSG equivalent
    {"in", "0.0254", "inch", 0},                         // no EPSG equivalent
    {"us-in", "0.025400050800101", "US survey inch", 0}, // no EPSG equivalent
    {"us-yd", "0.914401828803658", "US survey yard", 0}, // no EPSG equivalent
    {"ind-ch", "20.11669506", "Indian chain", 0},        // no EPSG equivalent
