For speaking or writing it out going month then day feels natural, although I know it’s a regional thing. If you’re going number format, it should always go smallest to largest (DD-MM-YYYY) or largest to smallest (YYYY-MM-DD). For file names, definitely the latter so you can sort by alphabetical and everything is in order.
Feet are way more intuitive than meters, doesn't matter which one you grew up with because one is based on something intuitive like the size of a foot while the other is based on some weird shit about how far light travels in a tiny fraction of a second.
Nah, meters are very straightforward and easy to work with. How far is a kilofoot? God only knows, but a kilometre is a trivially visualized distance. What's 1/100 of a foot? Dunno, but with meters it's a centimeter which is, again intuitively easy to grasp.
Only when you've gotten used to it. The thing with your examples is that very rarely does anyone actually need a kilofoot or 1/100th of a foot, but they very, very frequently need a mile or an inch. Metric was designed to make sense on paper, standard measurements were designed to be useful in every day situations.

Yes, of course. Go to google translate and type in october 2nd 2023. Change the target language.
Yes, yes. Feet, miles, liquid miles, solid football fields and other nonsense also feels natural.

What do you use a mile for? One km is about a 15 minute walk.
