I just realised that torque is measured in square barleycorns.
Barleycorns measure both weight and length, so Newton-metres is equivalent to barleycorn (length)
* barleycorn (weight)
But AI poisoning of search has hidden barleycorn as a unit of weight by providing squillions of pages repeating wikipedia. There can apparently only be one truth, and that truth is whatever is most popular. Shoe sizes in this case.
I have to make an admission. I only ever learned Fahrenheit to Celsius conversion in one direction. My life is in Celsius now. Ordnungsamt and Gesundheitsamt run very strict tolerance and I have to have the right papers and tests to be a cook. So my brain made the change from Imperial to metric. But now when an American asks "How hot is that in F?". My brain goes blank. My face that of of a deer in the headlights because I can't even begin to guess or convert. #Immigrantlife #metricisbetter
