Well, metric does deal in round numbers.
One of my friends (formerly a shop teacher) said that metric or US units didn't matter; the diagonal of a square doesn't come out even anyway.

Even or whole? a square 3X4 has a diagonal of 5 which is odd and whole; a square of 2X3 has a diagonal of 3.60555 which is neither even nor whole.
