I so agree
I am 29 years old.
I use metric for most things - except road distances and speeds, which are of course measured in miles because that's how the signs are.

At school in the early '80s I learned metres and kilograms. I did not learn pounds and inches.

I can understand people in their 50s still using mainly imperial measurements, as that's what they grew up with. But what drives me nuts is to hear people YOUNGER than me using them. At which backward schools did they learn these antiquated and non-senseical measurements?
