      I was a little confused by the paper sizes when I moved to Japan, but it makes so much sense. I love it now.

      Oh please, yes!

      When I moved to Mexico I was always annoyed with the weird ass paper formats, then when I moved to Canada I had hoped that over here they would have sane formats but alas…

      Seriously, the entire world got upgrade after upgrade everywhere and the US constantly was like "nope, we will keep our feet and miles and inches because those “make sense” keeping a large part of developed nations in the dark ages
