I've never understood the obsession with units of 10. When doing math, metric is the superior system no questions asked.

But for day to day stuff, 100 is just as random as 60. It's just a number on a sign that you have to compare with numbers on your speedometer.


Yeah.  
Converting stuff to other stuff, metric is great.  And there are a number of equations that are pretty much only doable in metric.  

But aside from that, there's not really any big benefits .
