@AlbinoMutant @LukeAlmighty @matrix @a7 @Eiregoat @MeBigbrain @grey "Day to day measurements" don't make sense if they aren't relatable.
A foot not being the same length as a foot for many people doesn't make sense. How much an ox can plough in a day hasn't made sense in almost a century. An "ounce" doesn't mean anyting meaningful. One fahrenheit? No one knows what even is.
At least metric is internally consistent.
