This case is easier to complain about than the caliper. The softer foam on the front and back gets nibbled away , and all types of foam provides a safe haven for metal chips. The hard shell works fine i.e. it hasn't broke open or cut me or failed to open. I've put the calipers in my pants pocket but that's obviously not a great situation.
The fraction mode is a meme. It provides psychological reassurances when the displayed number matches what's written on a drill bit, but neither the drill bit nor the hole are actually that exact dimension, and literally every other possible situation is even more fraught, so it's basically bullshit, even if I took the time to study any of the internal logic, which I don't, I probably couldn't change it anyway. Now if it had a USB port and one of them little shits that people know how to talk to, like say an STM 32, then it'd be a different situation
