Here is another way to think about it, If you have the first law of thermodynamics,
$$ dU = dq+dw$$
You can rearrange this to become,
$$ dq = dU - dw$$
Now, the above equation the heat transfer is an 'inexact differential' that means there is no function $F$ such that when you take the differential of $F$ i.e: $dF$ that you get $dq$. With this in mind, we can actually get a multiplicative factor on both sides which does make the differential exact. Turns out this multiplicative factor is temperature (*), hence we write:
$$ \frac{dq}{T} = dS= \frac{1}{T} (dU - dw)$$
Now, the good thing is that you got an extra state function to play with whose nice property is that the integral over the whole cycle of a reversible process is zero. If you feel like getting a meaningful interpretation to this new quantity, then see this post
Edit:
On a bit more careful thought, your scaled entropy function (assuming $k \neq 0 $) is also a state function and behaves more or less like entropy. It's integral over a reversible loop is zero, is a state function etc.
However, it may not match with the entropy derived from statistical mechanics due to the scaling factors. Personally, I don't think it is a good idea to reason out entropy using dimensional analysis when it can be well understood from the differentials and integrating factors ( well at least for the most part)
A person in stackexchange actually wrote a scientific paper about derivng that integrating factor which I Found is really cool. The actual paper is in Italian but you can get a rough idea of what it is by reading his answer in this post
