1000 meters/km makes more sense than 5280 ft/mile, or 6080 ft/nautical mile.

Well, yeah, but it worked okay for the last several hundred years.......

Or maybe my old brain can't handle learning more new stuff.

I'm old, growing up we had to learn the British Imperial system as Canada ran on it...1 pint = 20 oz., 2 pints to a quart, 4 quarts to a gallon.
Then we had to also learn the American Standard...1 pint = 16 oz as so on
Then to mess up our poor brains even more we then converted to the Metric system...somehow all these measurement have stuck in my brain. It is so nice to go to the good old USA and talk in inches, feet, yards, quarts and gallons...brings back memories of bye gone days.

Guess this makes me trilingual when it comes to units of measurement
