Also I'm a sailboat guy and the knot thing and nautical mile thing always trip me up . And don't even get me started on magnetic compass readings .
My concern... is we use one system or the other... and not mix them.
Remember a service van I had years ago...
Literally one bolt of the engine accessories (belt driven things on the front of the engine) would be 13MM... the next 1/2".
TBH I find more problems in the metric system, because of anomalies like different pitches on the same diameter bolt
