I'm not saying it is or isn't, but made the suggestion to Richard as a means
to change an uncomfortable situation into a comfortable one for him.

Maybe you should have told her you are an amateur chef and that you use
metric because good food made the right way has to be done in metric.
That includes using a balance instead of cups. It is like chemistry, if
you don't mix the chemicals correctly you produce an inferior product.
This way instead of you feeling like the weirdo, she would have.
Why do you think metric cooking tastes better than imperial cooking?
The UK's most famous and popular chef only uses imperial. I know that
some complain that UK food used to be awful but I'm sure it wasn't all her
fault!
