Well 1000 metres = 1 km; 1760 yards = 1 mile. Which system makes most sense? Same for other metric/imperial comparisons. Metric is easier.
Being an old fuddy I still prefer miles for distance, but it will change at some point as it's archaic. The only reason we didn't go over to km is that we couldn't afford to change all the road signs !
