We could start to measure everything in multiples of 21 cm, the “wavelength” of hydrogen, as depicted on the Golden Records on the Pioneer and Voyager spacecraft.
The spin-flip transition of a hydrogen atom’s electron has a frequency of about 1420.405 MHz, which corresponds to a period of 0.704 ns. Light at this frequency has a vacuum wavelength of 21.106 centimetres (8.309 in) (which is also the distance the light travels in that time period). Below the symbol, the small vertical line—representing the binary digit 1—specifies a unit of length (21 cm) as well as a unit of time (0.7 ns). Both units are used as measurements in the other symbols.

I think we will need to start measuring frame sizes in fractions of large boulders

Of course if the aliens came across this thread they definitely would not want to talk to us.

For all you metric folk, the meter is fake news masquerading as science!

I know you’re having fun, but just to be clear the origin story of the meter is in no way the point; it’s about it’s relationship with other units of measurement in the system being consistent and easy to work with.

Ok. I’ll be the one. Can someone please start a “why the metric system is the coolest and I’m willing to fight you over this” thread so we can get back to memes?
