I’m talking about trade using the ISO standard exclusively, and being punitive to any entity from the US that merely uses SAE guidelines in their production and QA.
If any reference to non SI weights and measures can be found in the production process, there’s an embargo against it.
But go on, explain to me the concept of relabeling stuff, as though I’m unfamiliar with the concept.
That would be ridiculously difficult to enforce. Also, most manufacturing, American or not, is already done in metric. It would be trivial for companies to swap units. There are many, many better ways to tariff American goods.
