Every engineer, scientist and mathematician on the planet uses SI units
Um, no.

The thing is, converting to metric would cause a lot of problems - we are a huge country and you better believe there'd be all sorts of problems from this.

So that raises the questions - what would the benefits be? Not nearly enough, since we all understand our current system fine. We don't need to switch.

Really, all this fuss comes from Europeans and other insecure types who need the US to change so they finally feel vindicated. All this talk about how great the metric system would be is just to hide those rampant insecurities because the greatest nation on earth hasn't changed. And we are doing fine so they worry that maybe listening to a dead French kind wasn't such a hot idea.
