We’re taught both metric and US customary units in school. I prefer metric for most things, to the point I have a metric-only tape measure among other things.
However, I’ll die on the hill that Fahrenheit is superior for ambient air temperature. 0 degrees to 100 degrees neatly encompasses the range of average surface temperatures seen throughout the year in the contiguous US.
Either is fine.
I have to admit I can picture American units more intuitively, but that’s just what you’re used to and use all the time. I have no idea what my height in metric is but it’s easy enough to look up and I’d remember it if I had reason to use it.
I also like afflicting measurement puns on my British colleagues. They groan in pain and may not appreciate the humor, but I’m amused at carrying on weather smalltalk about 30° vs 30°
