We’re taught both metric and US customary units in school. I prefer metric for most things, to the point I have a metric-only tape measure among other things.
However, I’ll die on the hill that Fahrenheit is superior for ambient air temperature. 0 degrees to 100 degrees neatly encompasses the range of average surface temperatures seen throughout the year in the contiguous US.
The rest of the world converted. Is the US so special that they’re the only ones who can’t?
I already said it’s an effort I think is worth it.
Go ahead and try to convince the thousands of corporations that are willing to spend millions lobbying Congress to save pennies per product that they suddenly need to change over such an arbitrary detail…
Every other country on the planet convinced their businesses to do it. Again you’re saying that the US is special somehow that it can’t.
Again, you’re not arguing with me, but with the companies that will spend millions to save pennies…
The US is special in that bribery is (now openly) legal. These corporations will not change just because Congress says so. They’ll just change congress.
