(Question submitted by Enrico) Being practically the last state on earth to use the imperial measurement system gives the U.S. a form of passive protection against any attempt to invasion.
Indeed, a warlike nation that would invade the country of Uncle Sam, should once landed his army, the instrumentation convert any of its military equipment from metric to imperial. An operation costly in time and money that makes any U.S. invasion highly improbable.
