  • Far be it from me to defend the imperial system- I love and daily work in metric, but you realize nearly all ancient measurement systems are created around commonplace physical measures (body parts, strides, etc.) and simple multiples thereof to make their use easy, yeah?

    We’ve got a lot of tools at our disposal now to both standardize and make working with a decimal system a lot more doable than before.

    The labeling on those axes is horrific. A human is apparently about 7 units of “Large” on the “Size” axis, and can piss around 110 units of “Jet” on the “Shape” axis.

    What is 7 units of Large Size you wonder? Fuck you. What is 110 units of Jet Shape you ask? Hell if we know. You sure aren’t going to.

    What are all the unlabeled dots? Who cares. Sample size? “I saw one do it.”
