inches feet pounds and fahrenheit are all much more human in their usage while metric measurements are cold and machine like
16 ounce steak sounds better than 450 gram steak to a patron
6 feet sounds taller than 183cm and is more easily recognized because things aren't in tiny measurements
there is more difference
120°F sounds fucking hot and a lot different than 86°F
48°C doesn't sound all too different from 30°C
in a purely scientific realm metric is better because everything is even and divisible but in casual conversation imperial got it right
