I'm dying with laughter here. 'Controversial' describes this statement as well as it describes "I think the best way to cure cancer is to swallow large quantities of Drano".
You've essentially described a plan akin to converting everything in the US to New Metric (a system that is similar to metric but has 2.7182 as the scaling factor for centi, mega, and tera but 3.141 for kilo, 10 for giga, and the unit of length will be the new metre which corresponds to 0.707 of a mile). Everyone will be on the same system. It'll be great.
