    this is exactly my point. you think a foot is the size of a foot cos you grew up with it. it aint.

    if we're dropped to some random country as a child, we're clever enough to learn the language, absorb the culture and grow to use its system of measurement intuitively. this is true for any time in history.

    so there's no difference in ease of use here, you're just making the math worse.
