A finch is is a unit I made up in my head to make sense of the weird customary system. It’s 4 inch (four inch -> finch) or rather 10 cm. Makes converting my instinctive scale to USian easier. It helps, that it’s also a plausible size of the finch bird.

What a great, useful way to estimate the conversion; especially for someone who is as bad at math as I am. Thank you!
