Arnold may have been born and raised in a metric country, but he is now totally Americanised. I'm sure if you asked him his opinion, you'd get a response of support for English units from him. Most immigrants try to conform and go out of their way to become familiar with FFU. Some immigrants refused to speak metric to me, even if I spoke metric to them or asked them to.
Being from a metric country does not automatically assume metric support.
