Why would you use grams for gold (as you should) but then switch to pounds for copper. Are you a lunatic?

The US usually consistently uses imperial, which sucks but it’s consistent. England switches between the two constantly. They’re crazy people, and they use measures like “stone” for weight sometimes too. Metric is obviously the better system, but consistency is better than randomly deciding which to use when.

Our smallest unit of weight is the ounce, which is 28g, and as much as Americans hate metric, we hate fractions more.

Unless it’s drugs.
All my favorite drugs come in fractions. Specifically 1/8ths and 1/4ths.

It’s funny that Europeans complain about Americans being dumb but also can’t comprehend converting units of measurement.
