The metric system is so blissfully consistent and easy to work with, why hang on to a ridick system of a bunch of mediaval measurements??
1 kilo? the weight of a liter of water
a kilometer? =1000 meters =100.000 centimeters = 1000.0000 milimeters. multiples of ten ftw!
temperature? water freezes at 0 and boils at 100. easiness!
Just think of how much easier it would be for kids to know their measurements and all the space probes that could be saved from crashing into mars!
