Does it annoy you that your combination square has metric on one side and American on the other, instead of having the same measurement on both sides?
How do you cope with measurements on both the inside and outside of corners?
I have no use for freedom units in my line of work, so ideally it would be metric only, but I can deal with it. It has measurements on both sides so I can usually just flip it if I need the metric units on the other side of the ruler.
Maybe that's just his left handed square and the right handed square is out of shot.
