You fail at arguing because it does not matter if I am American or not. Its completely irrelevant. We are speaking about the fact that metric system is better.
Your other argument about not understanding imperial system was also failed argument because its not about understanding, its about the fact that metric conversions takes split second and imperial conversions often takes serious math.

Since you are programmer your argument looks similar to:
Why should I do this thing in 1 code line if I perfectly do this in 3 lines. LOL. You should do it in 1 line because its more effective, optimized and time sensitive, and easier, and less chance to make a mistake and so on. Its simply no brainer. Yet you do not argue this fact, you argue as "proud American" with hurt feelings.
