I am willing to bet that you are simply more used to the imperial system.
I am not convinced that it has any objective advantage over the metric system.
My foot is about 50% larger than my SO's, but I can perfectly invision 30cm whenever I want or need to.
Cooking too. Try baking a cake in the two.
Pounds-and-ounces is all like "two eights is sixteen", "three threes is nine". Nice and handy multiples is what it's made on.
I'm about equally familiar with the two.
