Also, the imperial system is defined through the metric system.

In using imperial, you're just using metric with extra steps.

But no GIL if I'm not mistaken. Which means you can get some multi threaded tasks to run much faster without jumping through hoops.

My goto phrase when I want to troll people: "The creators of python called it that because they wanted a name that started with P, as a nod to its predecessor, Perl."

It's not exactly Ken M level, but post that anywhere and the amount of angry futile typing can faintly be heard around the world as other geeks start fuming.

I could feel a disturbance in the force 2 hours ago. Now I know it was precisely when you wrote this comment.

My goto troll-nods are all “subtle” which always makes me laugh harder and my trollees groan louder.

Everything is just C with extra steps.

The Imperial system is not defined though the metric system, the US Customary system is.

Your statement is incorrect

Since the Weights and Measures Act 1985, British law defines base imperial units in terms of their metric equivalent.
