The US isn’t as entirely devoid of metric as a lot of people get the impression. We all learn it in school and are perfectly familiar with it, we just never made the switch for everyday units, so a lot of people lack the intuition around what the values mean. I can’t tell you what 25c feels like without thinking about it for a minute.
I’m curious though, does anyone not use the proper names for the elements?
