> Who actually decided that metric was the right answer? People who wanted actual definition of units. Once upon a time if you wanted to sell stuff in my home City you would need to use the city measurements made via a really big stone tablet in the old roman center with various units of lengths. This was hard to communicate and stuff. The French decided that one unit of measurement was better than many and made one "easy" (possible) to replicate and validate when the imperial one still used medium sized wheat seeds as measure of pressure. But now everything is ultimately standardized on the metric system (even the US). So one need to ask better at what? Better to standardize? Metric no doubt. Better to use? Well this appears to be controversial
