If you take rhe same 24 hour day, and convert it to 10 metric hours, or mours, and split that to 100 metric minutes, or cenutes, and then 100 meconds, one cenute is 1.44 minutes, and one mecond is 0.86 seconds. The practical difference would be almost imperceptible. A mour would be significantly longer than an hour, 2.4 times, but you’d have the metric system attour disposal to break it into decimals.
That’s not to say we should switch, but it wouldn’t be that different.
But then we will change either seconds or days.
