      Yeah, also the metric system is way more precise. I mean one inch is about 2.5cm. So if somebody gives you his size in imperial you won’t know where in between those 2.5cm he is while in metric you can give the exact size down to mm and μm if you want to

    4:37 That cap was a result of a regulation of the European Union, because they find out that one of the most plastic pollutant thing is those caps thrown away apart from the bottles. The bottles usually are recycled. In Germany for example you get some money back if you bring plastic bottle for recycle.
    So as not every country in Europe is part of European Union, I would be interested to know if the cap is also a thing let's say in UK or Norway.
    I usually like that EU can make even global corporations to obey their rules, like forcing Apple to switch to USB C chargers from their lightnings, but the bottle cap is somehow annoying IMO.

      People don’t push the cap all the way down and don’t drink with it to the side that’s why a lot of complain about it, in the uk I think they have them, Norway idk.
      The reason is because first some people would trow the cap on the ground the other was the recycling machines sometimes couldn’t sort them
