60 is good because you can divide it by 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 12, 15, 20, 30 which is convenient
I'll switch to metric when we adopt dozenal numbers, and not a moment sooner
Compared to 100 which can only be divided by 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 25, 50. Not too bad, but not as good.
With circles being 360 degrees, the base12 is cooler
idk what you mean, circles are 2π radians
yeah, lets all start counting in base-60
I'll start by counting to ten
