So we all agree that the standard base 10 should be replaced

So we all agree that the standard base 10 should be replaced by a base that is a power of 2. Now the only question that remains is if 8 16 or 32 is the best number.
Almost all people have no problem learning a 25+ letter alphabet, so 32 being too large is not an argument
>>
Does S come before U, or after it? Does H come before or after L? Just because people know letters it doesn't mean they know their order and place instantly like they do numbers. Most people have to sing the entire fucking song to figure out which letter comes before or after which.

We don't agree with that anon, fuck off.

lamo brainlet
Also you "practice" the order of numbers 100 times more often than the order of letters

The answer is simple: base 1

Advantages:
>is a power of 2
>you only need to learn one digit
>very intuitive, numbers are literally what they look like
>you can solve Subset Sum problem in polynomial time

And when you need to express big numbers, you can use exponential form.

wat?

>>8991903
I don't have to provide an argument to prove that I don't agree, I just don't.

Also, base 10 is perfect to convert units, if you want to keep that system, you must also change the value of units prefixes, wich is unpractical, given our current use of the international system of units.
But you probably are an America fag and don't understand this.
Now shut up.

>>8991844
Base 256 would be best actually

All other bases can go to hell
