I think you mistook what I was talking about
I was referring to the countless products that are either imperial or
imperial/metric (additional to metric only).
Unless you are saying that I'm just "wrong" and my opinion should change -
if so then I apologise.

Wrong! Apart from the ludicrous (and highly misleading) campaign against
metric being the main measurement of loose goods, there has been no
complaint (from the public at least) about metrication.
Petrol, metric spirit measures, packaged goods, DIY products, carpets....no
complaints whatsoever from the public about the metrication of these
things.
As long as people receive what they ask for, they don't particularly care.
