ABANDONED AND SHOAHED AS A HISTORICAL FIASCO
A lot of non-americans do not know that metric temperature (Celsius) was abandoned completely (water froze at 100, boiled at 0), in the 1950s, and CENTIGRADE stolen and renamed Celsius. It is a shoahed fact.
A lot of non-americans do not know that metric time (deci-hours) was abandoned completely in the late 1700s. It is a shoahed fact of the metric system.
The metric system is shitty for human based perceptions of temperature, trade mass , and distance.
