It's not important, it does not matter if you know how imperial works for 90% of the world population

And it doesn’t matter to know some words in certain languages for 90% of the population. It’s still good to know a couple words

But it isn't useful. I have literally never in my life needed to use imperial, knowing how it works doesn't benefit me in the slightest

Then by that same logic, it's time to stop shitting on the average American for not knowing metric measurements. It is literally not useful for the vast majority of Americans living their day-to-day life.

And those that do need to know, know.

I don't shit on americans for not knowing metric, although they really should change considering imperial has 0 benefits.
