This reminds me of a complaint I have about wikipedia that is on steroids when it comes to forums. Something that would be a 400 page book gets destroyed and sucked down to one sentence oversimplification.

Got a book behind me that talks about the Catalonian Inch, I don't see it online. I guess that's why everyone votes democrat nowadays.

I had a great article that I lost and still haven't been able to find. It was about how the poles and dimensions of earth are perfectly in sync with inches and feet....oh wait that's too complicated, you can only use inches...u know, metric simplification and all with it's one and only one measurement.

So, when a girl asks you your height, instead of just saying four-ten, do you say something like one-hun-dred-and-twen-ty-four cen-ti-met-ers, or do you do the one-point-twen-ty-four meters and force her to do the conversion herself?

U know, if Metric was so great, we would be using yards for our height here. Maybe you can start the trend. Should we say 1.61 yards to make you feel more homey? Or just 1 yard and 22 inches?
