Why don't people adopt the dozenal base system? its natural

It's autistic and it would be very costly to change. Decimal is an international standard and works well enough.

>2 powers of 2

Fuck no, either use base 6 or base 30.

>>8965516
Why not base 210? It will have Chinese-tier amount of characters to accommodate every new number but it will be more efficient in the long run.

yea. but it save on clock materials

no annoying double digits

Hi.

I'm an average brainlet normie and I'm against this because it's confusing and scary and not how I learned it in school. I'm already bad at math and this looks like it would make my life even harder.

There's no way I, or the millions of others like me would ever accept this.

you would if it was the standard education and everything was in base 12, but yes, there is no point to this. base 12 shills are actually surprisingly common for negligible to non-existent benefits; it's odd.

most clocks are purely solid-state digital and in many countries this is so abundant and due to standard education, that hours are not divided into 12s, it's the whole 24, no AM or PM. In any case there are more pressing issues and this is just a waste of time.

Most efficient is base e

What you lose in depth, you gain in width.

360 degrees in a circle is arbitrary.

If the human brain likes to divide things in half then why not binary or hex?

There are so many little tricks you can do with binary. For example, it would open up the world of bitwise operations. Pic related. It would open up an entire world for number theory. Imagine if Euler or Gauss was taught binary in kindergarten.

What about languages that use a decimal naming convention? This might work for English or German, but for most Romance languages for example, eleven is a kind of compound word formed with "ten" and "one" (and some other particle).

>>8965520

if people learned binary, they would be able to use octal, hex, base 64, base 2^n for varying levels of character efficiency
