It is not correct to imply that BIP 20 requires Tonal Bitcoin support.
In fact, the exact opposite is true; it states that even if one unit (eg, TBC) 
would be a more rational way to display a specified amount, clients should 
still interpret it in the way that is deemed to be most intuitive to the user 
(eg, BTC).
