Ignoring cases where the system brakes down

So is ignoring the cases where it shines, so we're about "even" there, I'll "concede".

Arguing that inches are a more comfortable sizes is for one, very field dependent

That's what I've been saying this whole time. This whole time.

my biggest issue with the entire imperial system; It's mostly just based on vibes

Yeah I'm not arguing for the use of the imperial system here. Only that inches in particular are a nice size for small work but not close-to-microscopic work. And also that fractions are nice when used properly.

Other than that, THE METRIC SYSTEM RULES.

I hope my point has now fully come across. ๐Ÿ‘

Yeah took a bit, I still don't really agree as the cons outweigh the pros imo, but it's all very subjective anyways

very subjective

๐Ÿ‘ Indeed. This was all from my own perspective. Nobody has to agree.
