For length, Americans use inches, feet, sometimes yards, and miles, and never convert between miles and anything else (we express miles with a fractional part, like 2.3 miles)
Yes, it's nice to know how much energy is required to heat a liter of water by one degree, but when was the last time you did that
Anyway yes metric is better
