Easy for you to say: you live in a rational SI world, and don't have
to deal with the Fred Flintstone Memorial Measurement System (name
tm Markus Kuhn, IIRC) and its close cousin the Former Imperial Glory
Measurement System.

Big as a house, much bigger than a house, it looked to [Sam], a grey-clad
moving hill. Fear and wonder, maybe, enlarged him in the hobbit's eyes,
but the Mumak of Harad was indeed a beast of vast bulk, and the like of him
does not walk now in Middle-earth; his kin that live still in latter days are
but memories of his girth and his majesty. --"Of Herbs and Stewed Rabbit"
