even if you are right about this specific point, metric is still far superior. its not like every other country beyond america, liberia, and myanmar have exclusively shit architecture because their poor capenters and construction workers can't use US customary units. it clearly works, at worst it is an arbitrary and equally useful system of units, and at best it is far superior for international communications, mass production, conversions, scaling, etc.
every other country in the world has figured this shit out lmao, this reactionary take against the metric system is pure 4chan anti-intellectualism and nothing more.
