    @Suiseiseki @VD15 @egirlyuumimain Yeah, of course, but 1 ts, 1 tbs, 1 cup are nicer to work with than 4.9ml, 14.8ml, 236.6ml. Even if I round it to 5, 15, 240, (or maybe 10, 30, 250, idk) it's easier to divide and multiply stuff when your starting unit is increments of 1. This is the reason why even scientists make up goofy units like Barns and Outhouses, Angstroms, Jansky. Basically establishing a scale that works within the context of their field. The primary advantage with metric imo are unit conversions, and despite the chart I don't think people regularly do that unless they are in some sort of pinch.

    But my whole joke was really that incremental metric measuring cups would be silly.
