    What next you are going to ask how many inches in a mile? Those are two units that aren’t used in the same context. I’d be like if I asked you how many seconds are in a year. Or if I asked you how big a notebook is in kilometers, rather than in centimeters.

    A hybrid system really isn’t as wild of a concept as it sounds. We already just use conventional time keeping, metric is largely forgotten because of how unhelpful it was. https://metrictime.info/

    Doesn’t mean you have to take all of the weird units and conversions from imperial but it means to cherry pick the best of both worlds so we have a system that just works with what real people use it for.
