That system is called the metric system, not French units. French units
refer to the archaic system used before the metric system was invented (
at least according to google )
So, let's admit that French Units refer to the metric system. I suppose
then that the so called "standard" units refer to the imperial system.
Saying that the French units are technically worse than standard units
is a troll of very poor quality and a very weak argument.
