I've been using decibels as a scale for log-odds for a while when reporting results. It works pretty well, since the relevant part of the scale is wide, unlike using nepers, which I had never heard of until I started noodling around with this.

Like, how many decibels of evidence does this observation provide for this hypothesis? That seems potentially pretty workable, as long as you can ensure conditional independence.
