Everyone has trouble with something that's basic for someone else - we just have different skills. If these fractions are too confusing for a significant minority of people, then that's a good reason to switch from fractional to decimal.

Except In this specific case, it's about measurements for tools. Fractional is far more practical for construction than decimal for tooling.
