imperial was better because it reflected workers real experiences or something and metric was bad because bourgeoise.
That sounds like horseshit, but trillions of dollars worth of productive machinery, tooling, and metrology equipment are designed with and operate in imperial measurements. A single micrometer can cost hundreds of dollars. A single plug gage set can cost hundreds of dollars. Tools which are well cared for last decades. The stuff simply isn't going away any time soon.
For the love of god though, people should stop designing new things in imperial units.

They should also stop using metric because base ten is bullshit and causes a lot of annoying problems.
