Time is mostly base 60. It goes against the metric system based 10.
It's like saying milifoot. For 1/1000th of a foot. Doesn't make it a metric unit.
What I meant by my comment is that 1ms = 1/1000s, and the prefix "milli" is metric, ik time isnt metri, I should've explained that differently in my previous comment cus it indeed imply that time is metric. Thank you for correction!
