Metric is great for calculations, but for conveying information in a meaningful and intuitive way, imperial is superior.

...that metric is superior. You intellectual plebeians may now attempt to reply with your irrational and inferior rebuttals. Autists aren’t more rational, they just flap their hands and rock and memorize factoids about the triceratops. Which is fine, I guess. |

Could you buy chance derive the log likelihood function for a panel spatial error Tobit model? I currently have no autists available to aid me.

I have kid with autism and the only reason he knows how far a kilometer is because we play Pokemon go together. He's 9. He knows about grams, kilos, liters and milliliters. School is forcing the metric system, I don't think they teach units of imperial awesomeness. He also knows which country was the first to walk on the moon.

Superior says more about your utility function and value judgement, which I happen to agree with. Objectively it is more coherent. Empirically, nobody GAF and the well versed scribe is fluent in both.

People on the spectrum are now autistic. Dsm-5 updated the regulations to stated that all people with autism and aspergers, now just have autism. Something about losers and the metric system are communists and belong on the other side of the wall are mentioned in the same guidelines too. 
That was bad. I tripped up before the end of the first page. |

Quite the opposite. The fact that metric is fundamentally based off of dimensional relationships demonstrates that God Himself approves of it. Quote HistoryQuoted:

It's not like the Euro's are measuring down to the millimeter every time; most people round off. At the same time, you can still do precise machine-work in fractions of an inch. It isn't the system that matters, it's the person doing the craft.

A liter of soda, a half-kilo of rice, a quarter meter, etc..... A ton of grain feeds a Battalion for a day. A yard is an intentionally long stride (for consistency when measuring). A foot is literally a foot in a boot. An inch is a thumb. These are all practical units for the needs of daily life. They are human-centric. I can totally see how an autistic person would think metric is superior. |
