We did adopt metric! For our military. Because there's a certain efficiency in killing when it's done in metric.

Yes, it is, which is why it is baffling that they don't have good high speed rail infrastructure like China, Japan, France or Germany.
And yes, cars make sense for the rural people, but densely populated urban centers in the USA are just badly designed due to bad zoning laws.
