Yeah, imperial is... confusing... like you have inches, but then you don't get decainches, you get feet š. And then you don't have kiloinches, you have miles š¤¦.
Then they also use 1000ths of an inch. Because fuck it, let's just throw in a single base 10 unit.
Biggest dislike is lb-mol and Rankine. Like, it you're gonna do science, use the metric system, Jesus. Ain't no one gonna take you seriously using your off-brand clown units.
Well, to be completely honest, you could say the same about miliseconds... I mean, they are the only ones that do base 10 regarding time measurement š.
