Apply the Principle of good faith and you'll see you're the one getting worked up over nothing...

I'm sorry you feel like I'm worked up but please don't put that on me.

I've linked to the OP's original comment but to paraphrase:

"LOL, I can't take anyone seriously when they use Imperial units. It's unprofessional."
