a foot? it's the measurement of a human foot
it is real and you can prove it.

a meter? invented by scientists, imaginary numbers, they aren't real and can't be proven right.

actually there are conventions and 1 meter is the same size everywhere

if there was not metric system you wouldn't have a computer

1 meter is the distance light travels in vacuum for aprox. 1/300 000 seconds
it's comparable even to non human civilizations

every foot is unique even your 2 feet are not the same size
