      What have we done to deserve this?

        Nothing, you don’t need to do anything particularly good to deserve the metric system. It is given free of charge to all people!

          But I love having to add fractions with different denominators and getting it wrong!

          As a French dude knowing about another small petty French dude named Napoleon, I wouldn’t say it was always given free of charge.

        I’m just wondering what we did to deserve the inch becoming 25.4mm instead of just 25 XD

      We already are on the metric system.
