I read your first comment, and didn't understand who you were referring to. Now I get it. It's actually real interesting. It's not that base 10 "math" is harder. It's specific "math" of everyday life and commerce that was easier using those systems. You could pay using fewer coins, for example. You buy butter in in ppunds, half pounds, etc.. These corresponded to money denominations.
