Yeah, but that’s a really bad comparison. It’s useful for rough estimates when needed, but it’s not something we interact with often enough for it to be practical. It’s when everyday products are being sold in metric length that it will start to click. Stuff like 20cm diameter pizzas, wooden boards by the meter, a 1.8m TV, and square meterage of an apartment.
