I have to agree 100%. The slavish devotion of small brained regressive idiots to base 12 time keeping has bugged me for fucking ever. Swatch solved this decades ago, but people are too stuck in their “But this is what we’ve always used” bullshit mindset.
Fuck your decimal system. Dozenal is the most intuitive number system. Arithmetic is so much easier to learn in dozenal and you can even count higher on your hands if you use phalanges instead of fingers. Base 10 is a crap number system. It’s barely composite, it only has two prime factors.

Use binary. You can count super high on your fingers, arithmetic is as easy as it gets. Binary is the best number system.
Nah, readability is low and you can’t divide by three OR five easily. Binary has even fewer prime factors than decimal.
Base 12 is better than base 10. In an alternate universe we use it for everything and it’s a utopia. There is world peace and no one is hungry.
12 is evenly divisible by 2, 3, 4, and 6. 10 is only evenly divisible by 2 and 5.
(Fun fact, Tetris in that alternate universe doesn’t have the stupid Z and S Tetronimos. People are happy there.)
