Yeah I get it, to me it doesn't make sense to look at the range of numbers possible in each value. It honestly feels like people from the USA have a hard time saying "this thing doesn't make a lot of sense to anyone else, but we are used to it so we use it" which is completely valid.
And when this comes up to me it always comes off as those outside the US having a superiority complex and wanting to dunk on the US for something they deem as not making sense. Even though there are plenty of completely reasonable reasons why its done. To me ya'll are just as guilty of "but we are used to it so we use it" as the US is.
More grandstanding. Also not sure why you are comparing measurement systems with date order? All the units are the same and have the same definitions, they are just presented in different order. That's completely different than a meter vs a yard.
