    My sibling in Satan, that’s the backbone of the metric system. Nobody said anything about units.

      Gotcha, so we’re talking kilotons and microinches then?

      Or is it actually the units that make the metric system scary to Americans?

        Woodworkers use the “metric system” all the time it seems. “Thousandths of an inch” is a common unit.
