I take it and use it as a shorthand for "where are all the first group when the second group is out in force" and vice versa. It applies to places with a tone and tenor.
The cost is too high. You can't have mph and kmh signs on the same road. So you gotta switch all the signs at once. Mile markers, exit numbers (are miles), distance to signs, all have to change.
I did the math on a comment elsewhere. Just google how many miles of interstate there are, and quadruple it, thats not even approaching how many signs you'd need for just the interstate. Signs run $25-ish, plus installation, which can cost >$1000. At the very least the km markers will need to be installed.
Yeah someone thinking they screwed up to the tune of tens of mlllions of dollars (or billions, someone said 2^30 error); this is different to an auto accident or something. Most people can't even fathom millions or billions of dollars.
I'm stressed thinking about it, like from a theoretical standpoint.
If you know people who say they've gotten put on a lost for peeing in public, you know someone who is a sex pest but won't admit it.
