You can even make S = cT (c=ligth of speed in void space).
The choice of fundamental units is rather arbitrary, and can be 
reduced further to only 1 fundamental unit and even NO fundamental units.
There is a nice book about this subject by L. A. Sena: Units of 
physical quantities and their dimensions (or similar, I don't have it 
at hand to check the title).
