    Most people not in the US need to deal with both in most casual conversations. So they need to clarify almost all units.

    I’m in a trade, almost every material is imperial in my metric world. Everyone I deal with with knows the confusion that can happen, so it’s always unit denotions on everything.

        On the same vein of your last point, start talking about the weather that isn’t right at that second, now confusion can seep in.

        “Today is nice at 22, but man back home it was -10 last week.” “Oh thats right, that last one is Fahrenheit since that’s local to me. What’s that in Celsius?”
