Human scale? Not yours or mines, measures of the ffoot, thumbs and random desires of a dead British King in the far past.
No problem in metrics, at least if I don't build a hut in the wood with an axe, then maybe using parts of the body for measures are usefull. Not the first furniture I made, also working in metal. Also in mathematic and physic the metric system is way better (Even NASA now uses the metric system since 2 probes crashed on Marte due to calculation errors in the imperial system)

I doubt it had much to do with kings, as they didn't do handicrafts or have to measure things like grocers/traders do.
That image is really stupid, too much wrong with it to go thru.
