Very interesting and detailed explanation of the basis of the imperial system and its inprovement on the metric. It is likely to be right, and at least I will not discuss your arguments. In Argentina as in other countries of the world the metric system is always used, although curiously at hardware stores to buy the inch bolts and nuts are used to measure lengths and threads. But the vast majority have become accustomed to the metric, and we find it difficult to adopt a different one. The conversion of measures from one system to another can create considerable confusion in critical moments when you have an enemy ship in the periscope focusing, and this is not good. I'll tell you frankly, if as in the case of other versions of Silent Hunter, "Wolves of Pacific" gives me the option to choose Imperial or metric system, I will adopt the latter. In fact the crew voices are heard in English, but everyone will see the texts in Spanish, which is the language I speak and understand better. This does not mean that with practice I then decide to change the system, to make the game more realistic. Indeed orders in -some English and I know I can understand the well-all without reading the translation. Thank you very much for such a full explanation Comrade!
