SI also does meter instead of cm, so it overall checks out.
Comment on why don't people say mega meters
LostXOR@fedia.io 10 months agoI've always found that strange. I guess a kilogram is a lot closer to "human scale" than a gram, maybe that's why they picked it.

Having meter as a base unit makes more sense than kg because meter lacks any prefix.

But that is like a giant difference in what they usually measure

yeah humans do really need a small, inch and cm, a medium, meter and feet, and a big, mile and km.
