Pretty much the only reason I like the Fahrenheit scale, miles, inches and ounces seems to be that it’s something no one else uses. On the other hand, computers make calculations with these non-metric units just as easy, and precision-wise computers have no advantage to be taken from the base 10 anyway. (The fact that US is stuck with base 10 for numbers doesn’t mean much, as there always are ‘dozens’ and ‘scores.’)
