Is this the New Winston Churchill?

I used to not understand the reasons for using the Imperial Metric System, until someone explained me that indeed, it was more natural for the human scale than the somewhat artificial and difficult to understand concept of the meter.

That's why things like doors, have whole numbers if measured in feets, instead of meters for example.


And about fractionay units, daily we use to divide things in two, three, four parts... a foot is 12 inches, half a foot is 6 inches, a third is 4 inches and a quarter is 3 inches. Half a metre is 50 centimetres, a third is 33.3333333333 cms and a quarter is 25 centimetres....

And about the base 10 thing, we have the time (1 hour = 60 minutes each, 1 minute 60 seconds ) and no one seems to have a problem with that.

So pick your poison...
