@volkris As someone who has used inches his whole life I cant say I agree... they are big, bulky, and divided in an awkward way. There is literally no application they are better suited for that I can think of.

how are they more practical? Im not getting it.. Even at that size, cm and mm give you the proper precision and grading. If you need something closer to feel you have dm which is a perfect size for something where a foot woould be appropriate. Not sure I get how inch is somehow more practical? How, why?
