Yes, I understand all that, but it's still not an answer to the question of what, given the facts as they are, the benefits are that make it worth going against

Yes, I understand all that, but it's still not an answer to the question of what, given the facts as they are, the benefits are that make it worth going against that inertia.

- shmerl 11y agoThe benefits are pretty obvious to me - uniformity. I don't think you need any links for it.
- mejari 11y agoI already addressed why this is not sufficient: >And just saying "It's simpler" means nothing, because being simple isn't a benefit all on it's own. Does it being simpler mean X number of increased work hours because we aren't wasting time converting? Does it being simpler mean Y fewer accidents on the road or in the workplace? These are reasons, not just "it's simpler". What are the tangible benefits to people's lives that "uniformity" would bring? And do you think they outweigh the benefits of continuing to use our existing system? Why or why not?
