It's mostly just people like to attack conversions no one really does. Even with it's nice easy conversions, the average person isn't going to tell you how many nanometers are in a megameter, which isn't qualitatively different than barleycorns in a league.

Science also just invents new units of measure when it's convenient, light years, parsecs, astronomical units, moles, etc.

Moles are real, not invented by science!
