i didn't say that SU was bad did I :?
I didn't say that, it was a response to the problem you said that there was.
But there's a problem; 1 SU is equal to 149597870.691km! That's not gonna be very helpful for measuring distances on a planet.
Also what I mean't was "since it would be crazy to measure something small like on the surface of a moon with a measurement mean't for the distance between planets, we should add a smaller measurement too."
I agree, but I think a prefix system for a single unit is better than different units. It makes conversion easier and if the prefixes are used in multiple/all units, it's less information to remember than different names for units operating on different scales.
Because I didn't want an inch thing that was the size of like 100 millimeters, nor did I want an inch thing the size of a centimeter.
Why not? And what does it have to do with inches?
If you want a rational unit system, I don't think it makes any sense to make one distance unit 1/20th of another, unless you have a base 20 number system or something like that.
eat this, metric bastards
This just seems to imply that your unit system is more rational than the metric system. I just think the metric system is more rational because it uses one unit for one physical quantity and a common prefix system instead of dividing physical quantities (like distance here) into multiple units for different scales. In your system they're tied more logically together than in the imperial system (1 foot = 12 inches, and 1 yard = 3 feet, and 1 chain = 22 yards... Completely ridiculous). But a minich being 1/20th of a centric makes the same "failure" (imo) as the imperial system.
My umbrella can predict hurricanes, if it flies out of my hands.
Would be more like detecting I guess.
Hmmm, I guess I could switch to a system based on the speed of light, since the speed of light is always the same and it could be measured accurately anywhere. Stick with your primitive planetary-based timelines you silly fools
The speed of light can be divided into distance pr. time. So you still need to find either one, special amount of distance or one, special amount of time to base your units on.
