Trying to convert Imperial to metric is much harder when you don't know metric to begin with. That is the problem most people have - that is why the metric conversion act pretty much failed. How can you be expected to learn and know metric when you never have to practice metric measurements in everyday life. All of our companys make things in easy to remember imperial sizes like 1 gallon and 20oz and that leaves us with 4.5 liters, and 591ml which isnt as easy to remember and gives us more reasons not to use it. I'll just assume that metric using countries have nice rounded numbers on their products.
