I would like to make a table with values followed by its units, in which the numbers of the values are aligned according to the "rules" of the siunitx-package. I can do this with two columns (one for the values in S and one for the units in l), but I would like to have them in one column.
The command for values and units in the new v3 version of siunitx-package is:
\qty[⟨options⟩]{⟨number⟩}{⟨unit⟩}
Here follows my MWE:
\documentclass{memoir}
\usepackage{makecell}% forced line break in cell of tabular
\usepackage{siunitx}% SI units & number alignment in table

% SI UNITX
\sisetup{%

text-series-to-math, text-family-to-math,%
%
unit-optional-argument=true, free-standing-units=true,% units use outside siunitx
use-xspace=true, space-before-unit=true,% space before units
quantity-product=;,% hspace number-unit
exponent-product=\ensuremath{\cdot},%
per-mode=fraction, sticky-per,% fraction symbol
% Uncertainty & exponent
bracket-ambiguous-numbers=false,%
separate-uncertainty, uncertainty-mode=separate, separate-uncertainty-units=single,% ± sign for (#)
table-align-uncertainty=true,%
table-align-exponent=true,%
% Alignment
table-alignment-mode=format,%
table-number-alignment=center,% number cells in S column
table-text-alignment=center,% text only cells in S column
tight-spacing=false}%
%-----------------------------------------------------------%
% MAKECELL SETTINGS
\makegapedcells% vsep cells
\setcellgapes{0pt}% extra vsep of rows
\renewcommand\cellset{%
\def\arraystretch{1.0}% vspace between rows, height row, line spacing
\setcellgapes{0pt}%
\setlength{\tabcolsep}{0pt}% hsep columns (text-border)
\setlength\extrarowheight{0pt}% vsep above cell
}%
%-----------------------------------------------------------%
% COLUMNS
% Text-style math
\newcolumntype{u}[1]% units
{ @{,} >{$\textstyle} #1 <{$} }%
% Siunitx
\newcolumntype{J}[1]{S[table-format=#1]}%
\newcolumntype{U}[1]{S[table-format=#1,%

It seems like the \qty command makes the number value into a text number, see last row & 2nd column in the pictures below how its value is influenced by the table-text-alignment option and not the table-number-alignment option:
\sisetup{table-text-alignment=center}:
\sisetup{table-text-alignment=left} without makecell settings:
Furtermore, I have to use the makecell-package for other tables. However, the table-text-alignment=left option with makecell settings results in this same text centering of \qty:
\sisetup{table-text-alignment=left} with makecell settings:
Is there a way to make value+unit columns with siunitx alignment "rules" and using the makecell-package?
