How so?
12 inches equal a foot, 32 degrees fahrenheit is freezing point, etc... The whole imperial system is much more complicated than the metric system (i.e. 0 degrees Celsius is freezing point, 100 centimeters is 1 meter, 1000 milligrams is 1 gram).

I grew up with the metric system. You can get an idea of temperature with experience. 20 Celsius is warm; 30 is hot; 10 is cold and 0 is literally freezing.

Divide any metric unit by 3. Base 12 is superior.
