Miles are imperial.

>defending imperial ideals
It's not practical to use imperial, it's ridiculous. Professionals use metric, retards who are stuck in the past and enjoy using outdated inefficient systems use imperial. Deal with it.

this is it guys, this subject will no longer be up for discussion after this thread, and one system will be declared victorious.

metric or imperial, take your pick and do battle?

here's some starting info

metric: easier to manage (errything done by 10s)
imperial: inches/feet can be easier for some construction since feet can easily be divided by 12 and all it's divisors

imo: we should have a base 12 system anyways (if one God gave us one extra finger), and have it be a base 12 metric system
