The metric systems's worse flaw was doubling down on base 10 instead of the plainly superior base 12.
Obviously base 60 is superior to all
The right time to fix that mistake wasn't in metric, it was while creating our numbering system.
Base 12? That's a small number. Now base 13? 13's a big number. The biggest number, perhaps. That's what they're saying at least. Base 13, 13 colonies, now that's America.
The metric system is the tool of the devil! My car gets 40 rods to the hogshead and that's the way I likes it!
This can make sense for currency, but units of weight and distance and so on are infinitely divisible. You can just have a third of a metre if you like. Or 333 mm if the inaccuracy is acceptable. And so on.
Unless everyone worked in base 12 numbers too, that'd be a mess. Part of the beauty of metric is how often calculations devolve to shifting the decimal point.
As long as we count in base 10, it makes sense for the unit system to also be based on base 10.
As for changing the world to counting in base 12, yes there would be some advantages, but really, good luck with that.
Isn't base 10 easier because you just add/remove zeros, and also we have 10 fingers to count..?
Being able to count using fingers is more valuable than having one more prime factor.
Consider marking it with /s next time.
Lol sure, in no A0 years!
Only in certain fields. For most interactions divide by 10 is far easier than divide by 12, and you'd end up with far, far more "eyeballed" measurements.
So no, as a human being, I'm fine with base 10.
