Always show diffs in `HierarchicalResourceQuota` resources and manifests

[summerwind]

I found a case where there is always a diff between the HierarchicalResourceQuota resource and the manifest. The following manifest can be used to reproduce the problem.

apiVersion: hnc.x-k8s.io/v1alpha2
kind: HierarchicalResourceQuota
metadata:
  name: default
  namespace: default
spec:
  hard:
    count/replicasets.apps: 1000

After applying the above manifest, the diffs obtained using kubectl diff command are as follows. It seems that the values are always diffed by replacing them with SI units.

$ kubectl diff -f hrq.yaml
diff -u -N /var/folders/5l/b5vxg_4x5mj_ty2lvlnslbph0000gp/T/LIVE-460512288/hnc.x-k8s.io.v1alpha2.HierarchicalResourceQuota.default.default /var/folders/5l/b5vxg_4x5mj_ty2lvlnslbph0000gp/T/MERGED-1098353043/hnc.x-k8s.io.v1alpha2.HierarchicalResourceQuota.default.default

The replacement to SI units is also done in ResourceQuota, but the following definition of ResourceQuota will not show any difference using kubectl diff.

apiVersion: v1
kind: ResourceQuota
metadata:
  name: default
  namespace: default
spec:
  hard:
    count/replicasets.apps: 1000

This difference in behavior causes problems with GitOps constantly causing manifest synchronization. Is this HierarchicalResourceQuota resource behavior intended?
