I think, if you don't even know that the US doesn't use "Imperial" units, but that the system of units is actually called "US Customary", then you don't know enough about systems of units to be able to comment on the issue.

Don't get me wrong, I like the metric system. But US Customary units aren't that hard to deal with. Seriously, we're software developers, we don't memorize shit. We create type definitions and routines to convert between them.

The same arguments you make for why it's not that big of a deal to switch are the same arguments for why it's not that big of a deal to not switch.
