That makes sense if you use a gap filling glue but to me (and 313 million Americans) there is nothing odd about imperial sizes. When I started out in woodworking and DIY, longer ago than I care to remember, everything was imperial and I have always had imperial drills. A lot of older turners will not have a problem finding the right size drill bits.
