The Romans had very accurate measurement devices. They did not built an empire on feet or whatever.
Metric wins by being consistent. Every metric/imperial boundary is a failure point. NASA lost a $327M Mars orbiter (1999) to a pound/newton mixup. A Boeing 767 ran out of fuel because kg were calculated as lbs. Doctors using teaspoons instead of ml cause pediatric dosing errors. Global manufacturers run metric — imperial just creates conversion overhead, and conversion overhead kills.

@VooDooMedic Yes. Doing any sort of more complicated physics systems in a mix of metric and imperial units sucks.
