Why wouldn't you want your open-source user serviceable vehicle to use parts available within your continent??? Seriously, what are you trying to even say
I used to work in manufacturing in the auto industry. Everything is already metric in the US. People working on US made cars have the privilege of losing a 10mm socket just like the rest of the world.
Even the American car industry widely uses metric parts. These parts are easily available not just around the world, but in the US as well.
