Naw, it was because some idiot provided some of the terms in
metric instead of proper units.



It wouldn't have happened if they had used proper (i.e. _metric_ ;-) )
units consistently.


Rephrase that to:
"It wouldn't have happened if they had used one set of units consistently."
Cubits and millicubits would have worked, had it been consistent.
