I'm very much not a kid

This implies young people in general. But even so, imperial is still used within times - its just that both systems are used interchangeably.

Even "young person" is stretching the definition of "young" 😂

But, yes, I grew up with metric, and I don't particularly remember learning anything about imperial measurements in school. Other than things like miles and mph (and why do we still measure fuel efficiency in mpg, when fuel hasn't been sold by the gallon for years?), which as a driver I'm obliged to use, I'm fully metric.
