    It probably worked because they had such a great empire and a kingdom wide standard. One of the biggest reasons why other countries got rid of these measurements was ambiguity and trade. At least every country had their own measurements, often differed by member states or even by city. (Although differences by city probably already were gone when metric came around)

  I never had problems with feet, but i can’t wait until the current foot-craze subsides.
  It’s like with everything these days. someone makes a mildly interesting/funny/sexy/whatever thing and for unfathomable reasons 12% of humanity or 96% of humans on the internet latch on to it and make it the core of their worldview/humour/identity until the next thing pops up.

  Feet is relative to the distance you walk - with your feet.

  No don’t ask me how it works or whose foot was measured or why it isn’t strides.
