@Zergling_man @amerika @thor There are quite a lot of ways that imperial is retarded, but there are very good arguments for it.

If I want to measure a small-med distance, I can use my feet. If I want to use something in a recipe I can use any cup in my cabinet. It's not to say you cannot do these things in metric, but it makes far more intuitive sense when using the words. No need for a measuring cup or a measuring tape.

Also metric weight is just scientists using a block of metal and saying "this is the weight now". That to me is incredibly arbitrary too.
