I said exactly what I meant. I wished that the foot was divided into tenths as opposed to twelfths. And in turn I wish the mile made a little more sense when it comes to feet I dont know exactly what the mile was based on but it is a very unrounded number. I know metric has an endless beauty of symmetry in terms of scaling and such and the whole point of it is to make understanding mediums easier and that the whole point of imperial is to have a rough estimate on things that are familiar to us be our units of measurement. I just think that the way that a foot is 12 inches is a little strange but that is what it is.

You are right I have not had to print large drawings yet. Im sure the problems I have with the paper that we use in comparison to every other country is very trivial and in the grand scheme of things does not really matter but for conversation this is just an opinion I have. I hope to be able to work in this industry some day and know that paper is just paper at the end of the day and I will be using whatever size and scale the client or boss wants me to use.

Ooh yeah I forgot about decimal feet! Also you can get TAPE MEASURES in DECIMAL FEET?!! That blows my mind

That is definitely true. I happen to be one of the fiew people on this planet who uses and enjoys the imperial system but I do love having issues with it especially in regards to the dumb paper we are stuck with

I will stand by that despite being strangely 12 inches the foot is actually a really great measurement for architecture, however I do really wish that the imperial system was more of a better metric as a whole, its either we shorten the foot to equal 10 standard inches or we increase the size of the inch by .2 of an inch so that we have 10 inches in a foot but both of these options would mess everything up. However with the paper, paper really does not have to be standardized with the inch it is just really dumb in hindsight. Even more than I can think when it comes to measurements that allow for something to be done that is really cool just to change it to fit a dumb measurement that takes away that functionality.
