The only ones who like fractions are carpenters. If you bring fractions into a machine shop then you’re going to get a wrench hucked at you. Mechanics on the other hand keep the peace using fractions for fasteners and decimals for tolerances.
I’m on record multiple times on this platform saying I prefer to work in fractional inches in the wood shop specifically. It’s well suited to the tasks you end up actually doing while building furniture. If you wanted me to build a car, I’d do it in metric.
I thought Americans loved their fractions too much for those numbers.

Ok, I think I was still thinking about recipes but that is still way more than I’m used to and so arbitrary.
