    I’m an ISO 8601 guy but the MM/DD does make sense in American. We’ll say Oct 20th for a date and then straight translate that to numbers 10/20. It makes more sense than counting in French. Ex. 60, 70, 80, 90

      Counting in French is an incredibly low benchmark. Nice try!

        It makes more sense than Monty Python.

        Prepare your butthole for the Danish spoken number system, where they express integers in fractions

          They should just introduce a new system. Noone likes five halves of twenty for fifty. I guarantee it.

          Just indroduce English numbers, the end.
