I’m not defending the imperial system. The imperial system is based on nothing, that’s worse than being based on 10. Base 10 is stupid, base 12 is better. We only use base 10 because we have 10 fingers, because apparently people are all children and need to count on their fingers.

We use base 10 because we have 10 unique numerals because we have 10 fingers.
That seems a pretty good reason to me
