We’re taught both metric and US customary units in school. I prefer metric for most things, to the point I have a metric-only tape measure among other things.

However, I’ll die on the hill that Fahrenheit is superior for ambient air temperature. 0 degrees to 100 degrees neatly encompasses the range of average surface temperatures seen throughout the year in the contiguous US.

    I do like metric for a few things distance and mass. Temperature I prefer Standard when cooking or asking about the weather. Scientific metric is much neater and handy. When talking pressure I understand/like PSI better than Pascal.
