I love that "standard" means non-standard. I only have metric nuts and bolts, I use them for 3D printed stuff, car and bikes, and I have imperial screws and wrenches for wood working and car. I think my car is all metric, but it just felt safe to get a dual kit.
offtopic, but I was just reminded of making fun of my stepdad because he had a bin full of "standard" sockets labeled "stander".
