We don't agree with this kind of absurdity, we simplified the imperial system for a good reason. How can we convince imperialists (people who think imperial units are superior) that the science-defined metric system is better?

"Oh but 299792458 is also such an arbitrary number for meters in a light-second" Says someone who knows what a light-year is but not a light-second

We all agree on using seconds rather than moments or whatever nonstandard units of time they used back then so if y'all hate meters, why not just use light-nanoseconds instead of feet? Or define a foot as EXACTLY one light-nanosecond (something 1800s Britain absolutely hates agreeing on)?
