> You have no idea how hard it is to get Americans to use 100% metric everything, even in the year 2016 in a highly technical field. It's incredibly frustrating.
I'm equally frustrated by how hard it is to get others to use standard units instead of the French ones. There's no particular reason why 'technical fields' should mandate use of French units: one can fly an æroplane, run power to a lightbulb and get a man to the moon all in standard units — indeed, that's how those things were initially done.
