This argument is stupid. And so is the fact that there's even more than one. These are units of measure we're talking about, FFS.
Scrap one or the other. I don't care which one. I can decimate an inch just as well as a centimeter. Sure that's not as common, but hell I do have 1/10" and 1/100" rulers and use them with prints with callouts in decimal inches. And you could flip the script and express imperial units in terms of energy and layer metric on top of it instead of the other way around. It doesn't matter.
Wouldn't be mad if I woke up tomorrow to a world of only metric. Or only imperial.
inb4 "muh conversions make me a smarter" You know, stay the hell away from engineering if that's how you think.
We aren't going to manufacture calculators with an infinite screen length just to fit your medieval stick and stones system of measurement, get used to it
Shit's lame and is endangering everybody at this point, year is 2022 we're going for space travel, we need real accuracy

No need to take a hostile position and imply this alleged "ownership" when I'm being quite clear of my intent.
How about a new system based on natural units... wonder if that would be any good.
I'm hostile to imperials that's just the way it is

Hm...
>The metre, symbol m, is the SI unit of length. It is defined by taking the fixed numerical value of the speed of light in vacuum c to be 299792458 when expressed in the unit m⋅s−1, where the second is defined in terms of the caesium frequency ΔνCs.
