It's funny because all of the imperial units are mathematically based on metric anyway.

I'm an American, so I started with imperial units, but I am making the very slow progression of converting to metric. I already use metric for work, and it's already the scientific standard here and has been since the 70s. It's just turbo annoying to try and get used to a new measuring system that I use reflexively especially when surrounded by imperial units. Makes it too easy to trip up and fall back.
