I'll get some popcorn and you can explain it to me.
Are you making a joke or are you serious?
Are you for real?
Do you think scientists created the metric system?
Um, no, unless you truly believe that Napoleon Bonaparte was a scientist. So, do you? You know, believe Napoleon was a scientist?
The metric system was borne of the megalomaniac Napoleon's extreme hatred of all things-British.
The prime meridian was established at Greenwich, England.
Napoleon's Anglophobic hatred of all things-British was so extreme, he ordered a new prime meridian designated at Paris.
French scientists weren't smart enough to understand that Earth is a spheroid and not a true sphere. Because Earth is a spheroid, the lengths of the meridians is not uniform.
No matter, the French divided the length of the meridian through Paris into a 100, 1,000 and 10,000 equal parts and that's the origin of the meter, kilometer etc.
In the 1960s, with the advent of satellites, it was realized Earth was a spheroid and meridians were not uniform in distance, so the standard for the meter became so many wavelengths of the orange-red radiation from Krypton.
I kid you not.
In the 1970s it was discovered that Krypton was unstable and that the orange-red radiation varied, sometimes more orange and sometimes more red, so the standard was changed to the distance light travels through a vacuum in so many nano-seconds.
So, there's nothing scientific about a measuring system created by a megalomaniac's racist bigotry against a particular ethnic group.
The English system is actually more scientific than the metric system.
If I were to pick a prime meridian, I'd pick the Great Pyramid at Gizeh. It's oriented to the cardinal points and the margin of error is less than 0.3° and that's only because the tectonic plate has shifted and not due to builder error. Something else is that it exactly quarters Earth's land masses, meaning 25% of Earth's land mass is in Quadrant I, 25% in Quadrant IV, and so on.
I know pundidiots claim that an inch or a yard was the length of a king's thumb or forearm but that's just an urban myth not supported by any evidence.
Flinders Petrie and 1,000s of other archeologists, engineers and scientists took measurements inside the Great Pyramid and came up with something called the "pyramid-inch."
The ratio of inches to pyramid-inches is 1:1.0012
12 inches in a foot was not the length of a king's foot as detractors claim.
It is derived from the sexigesimal system, or Base 60. You know, 360° and 60' and 60" of arc and the 24-hour day, and 60 minutes in hour and 60 seconds in a minute and so on.
That's way more scientific than the metric system.
You say Base 10 is superior or easier. Why would you want it to be easy?
If Base 10 is so superior, then why did people use Base 60 in the first place?
What, Sumerians had a thumb and 5 fingers on each hand? No.
In fact, the evidence indicates Base 60 was in use for 24,000 years before Base 10 became vogue.
You ought to consider that problems in math and science and other "mysteries" might be solved if people viewed things through the lens of Base 60 instead of Base 10, and if Base 60 makes people smarter than Base 10, then why not?
Just something to consider.
