The ease is in moving between measurements. How many feet are in 102.3 inches?
Sure I can do the math to calculate it in my head and take a few seconds.
How many meters are in 240cm? Don't need to 'calculate' it the same method. I just move the decimal over. 2.4m...
I say this as an American who finds our use of Imperial pointless. Infact, there is a highway in Arizona that uses metric instead of imperial, as it was a part of our move to metric. (The current measuring and weights system in the United States is based on Metric, we do use it, just converted into another measure)
