I believe it was that you could easily change letters. Instead of needing one template for each page you could just arrange all the little letter templates the way the page was written. So you could more easily and quickly produce different books and needed a smaller inventory.

>>105795105
Technically yeah but it's nice to have a specific setting you know about. Also it makes sure that
1. the window won't slam open/closed because of a gust of wind
2. Pets like cats can't escape
3. Bigger animals can't enter

The metric system is for retards who are too stupid to understand fractions, invented by a bunch of feckless French proto-redditor pedophiles who had never actually done anything in their lives other than diddle children.
Metric is an absolutely useless and anti-human system completely devoid of all application to reality.
>pic related
They take the meter (which is basically a yard) and then say "Oh look, we have all these other units like, uh... one thousand meters! And one thousandth of a meter! And uh, one hundredth of a meter too! So useful!" You know why you retards sell lumber that is 0.024 meters wide? It's because 24 is a USEFUL number, unlike 10 (notice how 24 is the number of INCHES in 2 FEET???)
You literally have built an ad hoc system with metric except you're stuck with the shitty fucking meter.
And it's like this for all of your "units". Totally useless in any real application.

It gives users an easy option to have some securities without having to rely on an underpaid chinese worker to make the mechanism right. It also gives us the right not to bait on a daily basis because our dogs don't open our windows further and throw themselves out of the fifth floor.

The real proof the metric system is retarded is that the imperial system is already completely consistent to BINARY, not decimal.
And binary is much better than decimal in every way imagainable, not the least of which is that biologically our bodies and minds are all powers of two.
Here's the REAL imperial system
Length
>finger = 1
>hand = 4 fingers
>hand span = 2 hands
>cubit = forearm length = 2 spans
>yard = arm length = 2 cubits
>fathom = height = 2 yards
>rod = 4 fathoms
>chain = 4 rods
>furlong = 8 chains
Volume
>noggin = 1
>gill = 2
>cup = 4
>pint = 8
>quart = 16
>pottle = 32
>gallon = 64
>peck = 128
>weight
>minim = 1
>scruple = 8 minims
>dram = 8 scruples
>ounce = 16 drams
>pound = 16 ounces
>stone = 16 pounds
>wey = 16 stones
>ton = 8 wey

>>105798697
>metric is retarded because imperial is binary
Holy kek, anon. Did you even open a history book once in your life?

Imperial isn’t “binary based” lmao. It’s a schizophrenic mess of medieval bullshit slapped together by random feudal lords. There’s 12 inches in a foot, 3 feet in a yard, 1760 yards in a mile – where’s your precious powers of two here? Did the binary fairies skip that day?

And no, our bodies aren’t “powers of two”. We got 5 fingers.

Also half of those units you listed don’t even convert like that. Stone is 14 lbs, not 16. Minim, scruple, dram? apothecary autism no one uses anymore. You just made up half these binary conversions to cope.

Metric is superior because it’s not made by feudal peasants measuring barleycorns to decide how many spoonfuls of plague rat stew they had left. Stay mad.

>>105798759
No you. All those measurements are well within historical averages proportionally.
Also yes our bodies are in base two, for example each joint of our arms and legs splits the limb in half, from the shoulder, elbow, wrist, knuckle, etc...
Also the human brain is best at counting powers of two and highly accurate at guessing doubles and halves of even every large numbers. Also our senses are logarithmically tuned to powers of two, we're always better at detecting halves and doubles in every possible way from light, to sound, to frequency, to distance, to temperature, to weight.

Binary multiplication and division is so simple slavic peasants did it with no problem, you can even perform square roots and logarithms by hand or mentally with ease.
You eurotards just can't comprehend proportions and bow down to rigidly enforced centralized "measurement standards" like homos.

>>105795214
>1. the window won't slam open/closed because of a gust of wind
I've definitely had my shitty European windows slam close on windy days. Even on the tilt open setting. They're overly complicated, and you need a window condom to install AC. The only good thing about them is that they're almost always double paned, keeps the house hot/cold and limits outside noise.

>>105798793
>each joint of our arms and legs splits the limb in half, from the shoulder, elbow, wrist, knuckle, etc

You realize that when you cut a thing, it always results in 2 parts, no? It has nothing to do with the human body.

>the human brain is best at counting powers of two

you high?
Ask your pimp how must is 2^6 and 10^6. See what's faster.

>highly accurate at guessing doubles and halves
Ask your drug dealer what is 256/2 and 10,000/2. See what's faster

At this point I am convinced this is bait

>>105798841
Think for a second faggot. Or try reading.
Each joint is half as long as the previous one. So the shoulder to elbow is half the entire arm length, elbow to wrist is half of that, same with wrist to knuckle, then each knuckle is half the length of the previous one.
>base ten eurotard can't understand binary
256 is 1,0000,0000 in binary, half of that is 1000,0000
In octal that's 100 and 40 respectively.
2^6 is 1 with 6 zeroes, or 10 in octal.

>>105798885
>256 is 1,0000,0000 in binary
I cant even

>>105797919
I mean in general it's true.
>24 is divisible by 2
>24 is divisible by 3
>24 is divisible by 4
>24 is divisible by 6
>24 is divisible by 8
>24 is divisible by 12

Meanwhile 10 is only divisible by 2 and 5. This is the real reason why 24 is a useful number, unlike 10.
