I take several measurements and average them. Ideally, we won’t be staying there too long anyway!

I completely agree. I only measure “officially” in 1/8ths. Anything smaller seems fairly negligible.
Tenths are close to 1/8ths, so I guess the size of the unit is fair.. But I don’t understand why people use tenths so consistently when almost all American rulers use 1/8ths.
My thoughts are either people are afraid of fractions or international presence in PE forums is much higher than I realize.
La petite mort
I have a ruler that is in 20Th’s and I think it’s great for accuracy
If people want to measure in 8Th’s, 10Th’s of an inch, mm, cm’s or beside a coke can then it’s still measuring. What does it matter?
