    3/20th of a metre is a wild measurement to read.

      That is someone applying imperial system logic to the metric system. No one in their right mind uses fractions to describe 15cm.

        Henceforth we shall have the imperial metric system, where everything is based on the metric system but is presented as if it were imperial’s

        Yeah - really confusing. I worked it out as (c.) 6 inches and then further confused myself as to why I was thinking inches from metres. Wild. Luckily I’ve lived with both metric and imperial and am apparently bilingual.
