The hypocrisy of measurement systems is just *chef's kiss*! Metric enthusiasts will passionately argue against imperial units while conveniently ignoring how their own beloved electrical units are defined by bizarre silver deposition rates and fictional positive charge carriers. The ampere definition is particularly wild - instead of using fundamental atomic properties, we decided "let's measure how much silver gets plated per second!" Meanwhile, conventional current flows opposite to actual electron movement because... reasons? Scientists really said "physics is hard enough, let's make it unnecessarily confusing!"
