That may be. But it seems that the inch lends itself more easily to these
tricks. I don't know why, though... maybe something like an "I do anything
for a public appearance" corruption tendency, brought about by the
sensation of its soon-to-come death, which must have started when the USA,
its strongest ally, decided to use the meter to define the inch, back in
1893? :)
