@krcaddis“Base ten is normal not the old defunct Brit royals based foot size. You’ve got it backwards.”.It’s arbitrary.You can do base ten in inches, feet yards or Alfreds.You can do fractions in centimeters, meters, furlongs, kilograms.Base 10 is nice but not inherently superior, just fewer calculations or easier ones.
