    The UK sorta tried switching to metric but didn’t do it completely and now has a weird system where the system you use depends on the situation I hate it

      The US does it too, the other way around. They use fractions for a lot of things (3/8", half a foot, etc.) and then switch in decimals (like “2.5 inches”) when they think you’re not looking. Except for bullets for some reason which are in mm.
