5.90
what in fuck, trying to speak americaine but producing nonsense to both the yankees and normal measurement users
Gotta admit it’s hilarious to metricize eagles per square burger or sthing.
i don’t care if a yankee did this before, it is silly
yes, but it’s not new silly. the frenchman accidentally stumbled upon an idiocy already dreamt up
no, i do that to be fair, i think anyone who has lived their entire life metric does, and in fact google and a lot of unit converters do the same. it’s natural and not techinally incorrect to say 5.9 feet if you mean 5 feet and 9/10s of a foot

sure, but a tenth of a foot means nothing to burgers or to normal people
tenths don’t map to imperial sub-units so they’re pretty useless even when people do use them (tenths of a mile is one ive seen)
Tenths of a mile are reasonably practical though. Like I know how long it takes to walk, run, or drive a mile, so I also know how long it takes roughly to go a tenth of a mile. (Not long by any method)
tenths of a mile are necessary because noone memorized the fractions of 1760 yards and no one does the math so yards stop getting used ~1000 and there’s a gap where you still need to talk about incomplete miles but saying something like “a mile and 1160 yards” is goofy
like you can still adapt an intuition of it but it doesn’t really fit
I’m 5.11
5 and a tenth of a foot or 5 and 11 inches? nonsense system
