Tbh, the last sentence was just a silly jab at the imperial units.
I was mostly just making fun of the fact that you implied the Fibonacci sequence can be memorized, when it is infinite. I’m not saying that referring to it is simpler than dividing/multiplying by a constant, no.
Ah yes, I always remember the Fibonacci sequence and totally wouldn’t find it harder to calculate than just doing the conversion the regular way
/sarcasm
But woudn’t you only need the 3 = 5 part?
“Remember”? Do you also remember all the digits of π?
It’s defined as
F(0) = 0,F(1) = 1andF(n) = F(n - 1) + F(n - 2). Which makes more sense than imperial units.Or I could just do 1.6 km ≈ 1 mile whenever I need to convert from the standard that I use, Metric, to Imperial
Far far far simpler
Edit: I’m not American, I use sensible units, SI Metric

I know from running that 5k is 3.1miles so I just go from there
Same!
But you’d only need to do the conversion if you started with imperial units.
