Of course. When you're working mainly with one format, the other becomes a hassle. The point is that those two formats are pretty much equivalent, quality wise.

Of course. When you're working mainly with one format, the other becomes a hassle. The point is that those two formats are pretty much equivalent, quality wise. One is not inherently better or worse than the other. When it comes to imperial vs. metric, the systems are very much not equivalent, and you could argue that either of them is better. Of course, they're better at different things, so in the end it comes down to weighing their respecting strengths against each other - but at least there the discussion is somewhat meaningful. When it comes to dot vs comma, it's just an arbitrary choice, and too bad we didn't all choose the same.
