Comments by "Asbestos Muffins" (@AsbestosMuffins) on "Is The Metric System Actually Better?" video.
yes but also no, but also yes. there's just too much shit in the US to change units and by that i mean too many old engineers and companies who won't change units. I worked in a lab that had some equipment in metric, some in imperial, and most just not labeled at all. I spent more than a few frustrating hours correcting shit because it got all messed up or one of the production engineers couldn't read metric for some damn reason. Had a fun time once when I noticed one of two identical machines was set to imperial while its counterpart was set to metric, and I was about to run a program that would have put 10,000 lbs on something when I wanted 10kN
