We do not use "British" and Metric. We use S.A.E. and

up with a system that is worse than their teeth or
their cusine, known as
"Whitworth".

Actually an engineer named Whitworth came up with
Whitworth, known as
British Standard Whitworth later on.

How does ths differ from what I said?

It's coherent.
