So you admit your precious meter isn't up to the task of being decided by three and you have to find ways to compensate for its inadequacy.

As a brit, the only thing I care about is the extra 68ml I get in my pint.

Instead of fighting over the best arbitrary unit system we should all sit together and create a truly logical system that makes conversions - even between units - as simple as possible.

Why should we? There are only 3 countries that don't use metric.

Why should we accommodate to something less than 5% of the population uses? Especially if it is so wildly inconsistent in every form it takes?

Please divide one of your fancy meters in a third. I'll wait here for you to finish repeating the number 3.
