12 Month are better for dividing a year, which is often needed.
I know it will never change, but I propose 12 30-day month and 5,25 extra days at the end of a year. Also 5-day weeks or 10 day weeks and every year starts with the same day.

Kilometers to miles is probably the easiest common conversion. 5 km is 3 miles, easy peasy.

F and C are both made up points, not absolute values. C is great, if what you care about is what water is doing. F is great, if you care about how something feels to a human (not saying you can't memorize new numbers, but 0 and 100 being dangerous is simple).

If you want an actual "best" temperature scale, use Kelvin. 0 is no energy. It actually has a fundamental base. If you argue that temperatures that are useful to humans are too hard to memorize, then you're making the argument against C too (or F when dealing with water).

Soon it won’t matter anyways. Isn’t AmericaUS like..done now? We can move on with our normal shit and chuckle at it like a museum piece.

I think I never saw using Deca- and deci- in real life

What I'll defend, however, is fractional measurements when precision matters.

With decimal measurements, precision can't be nearly as granular. If your measurement is precise to one 1/8 of a unit, how do you represent that in decimal? 0.625 implies your measurement is precise to the nearest thousandth, but rounding it to 1 also isn't precise. 5/8, however, tells you the measurement AND the precision.

With fractional measurements, you can specify precision by changing the denominator to any number, whereas decimal is essentially fractional measurements, but with fixed denominator at powers of 10. For instance, a measurements of a half-unit with levels of precision between 0.1 and 0.10, fractional can be 6/12, 7/14, 8/16, 9/18, 10/20, 24/48, etc. Decimal can't specify that precision without essentially writing a sentance.

What's simpler to record? "24/48" or "0.5 +- 0.208333...."

Imperial is FAR more human and "natural" then metric. Metric fails frequently at being quantifiable with natural experiences and objects.

But imperial falls apart the second your trying to do something at a large scale, super small scales or literally anything that isn't "human scale"

And basically every test I've ever seen. If you don't have tools or some reference point, people will nine times out of 10 be able to more accurately gauge something using imperial measurements then using metric measurements.

Metric relies far too much on reference in tooling, but that's also its greatest strength. It's absurdly, exact and reliable while imperial is loosey-goosey

Come up with a metric time system then. Also, fix the damn calendar.

We use decimetres in chemistry a fair bit. 1 mole of any gas will occupy 24 dm³ at rtp

Never got this. I saw one fucking dumb american actually defend the rrtarded system by saying "It's actually more precise" - what a fucking stupid thing to say, when you don't even have a smaller unit than freaking Inches. Atleast we have mm. You guys use 1\4 Inch. Wtf is that??

thats just liters

It's because metric sucks at anything on a human scale and most people deal with things on a human scale. Imperial was developed over hundreds of years to be extremely narrow and scope in a specific two things at a human scale.

It's a big reason why imperial makes far more sense. If you actually need to talk about anything on a human scale, everything no matter how nonsensical makes sense the moment, it's explained because it's all extremely intuitive.

While metric is basically a tiny fraction of a technically Superior system that basically makes no f****** sense in 99% of cases for a day-to-day life.

Try metric is the measurement of science, engineering and other fields of study because they actually do with things outside of day-to-day human scope

As the saying goes, use the right tool for the right job and only a dumb f*** uses the wrong tool for the wrong job

Yes both are made up. As everything we use to count or measure is.

However it depends how they were made up.

Fahrenheit was set to 0 on the lowest temperature someone could achieve at time. And 100 was set to the body temperature of the human body. Totally two comparable points of measurement.

Celsius uses the melting point of water as 0.and then uses, revolutionary, the same water when it changes its state from liquid to gas.

Come up with a metric time system then. Also, fix the damn calendar.
