    Maybe they should merge the yard and the meter or the mile or the kilometer.
    Measurements are set by different standards and can never be changed to be something else so I say either chuck everything and start over from scratch or use one or the other of the existing systems chucking all of the other ways of measuring. Or as I have often heard the statement you do you and I'll do me. Od as I like it I'll do you if that is what you want and I'll do me when it suite me
    Never try to tell me it can't be done
