    Pretty much, the only imperial unit I kinda use is gallon, but even that mentally I am using it to describe around 4.5L. Got 5L demijohns and with the headspace you are left with about a gallon. Fun fact of course UK and US gallons are different, its such a dumb unit, but there is something nice about saying you have a gallon of mead or cider.

      Distance / length is the worst. A lot of people still measure in feet and inches.

      Those of us who use metric still probably use feet and inches to measure height of a person, miles to measure distance and miles per hour to measure speed.

        I find distance is mixed, only miles when its driving otherwise km usually. I don’t drive either so no reason to use miles. For a persons height yeah I do know some people that still use feet for that.
