>>11173468All these jerkoffs think metric is the holy of holies because everyone uses it. Metric is just as autistic as imperial (note that nobody has converted to decaseconds, we still measure in fucking minutes and hours).
Hey, what's the temperature outside?
>let me check with a scale whose 100-degree mark is boiling water (approximately, since in reality water boils slightly below 100C and it also depends on altitude)Metric is good because it's base-10!
>implying base-10 is good>floating point error is a problem, can't divide powers of ten by three without infinite repeating decimals>literally picked 10 because we have 10 fingersMetric is better because it's the units of science, nothing is arbitrary and everything comes out as nice, neat numbers!
>Literally no physical constant has a nice representation in metric>If you really wanted a "scientific" system of measurement, just use natural units, where c = hbar = ... = 1. Setting all physical constants to 1 is obviously the most natural way to measure things, why hasn't metric adapted to reflect units of Planck length? "It's pro-science" yeah, if the science is done by a high-schooler
