@futurebird oh yes, had to deal with that all my work life... Built a factory for plastic film based on a machine from Germany, the machine was all metric (imperial would have added $5 million in cost). We converted the length of spools from meter to yard, then to pounds of plastic. Sold it to Korea, where they converted pounds to Kg, then to meter again. And then wondered why there always were errors in bookkeeping
