According to google, a deer has a height between 0.85 to 1.5 metres. According to the Texas Almanac, the Lone Star State extends 801 straight-line miles (from north to south). This equates to 1289084,54 metres.
Taking this into account, a deer is between 0,00000066 and 0,0000012 Texas.
I hope this helps.
But how many square burgers is that?
1 centiyard is about equal to 1 centimeter
1 miliyard is 3 milifeet
1 kiloyard is 3 kilofeet
It would be the same as the metic system having something like a “hand”
That if you wanted to express 1/3 of a meter you could just call it 1 hand. 2/3 meter would be 2 hands.
If you were using this metric system and knew that something had to be two hands long. You’d simply call it 2 hands instead of .66 meters or 66 centimeters.
If something had to be 2.5 hands long it would be .825 meters or 82.5 centimeters
Meter and yard are both random established lengths. Using miliyards or millimeters is exactly the same.
US customary units just have smaller unit names you can call them if it is convenient. If you never wanted to use anything but yards like the metric system does meters, it’s possible. Don’t want to use miles? Then megayards.
I do think 1 simple system that everyone uses is needed and the metric system is simple.
But if stupid Americans can use the “difficult” system, it can’t be too hard.

I think about this whenever I see someone complain about how Fahrenheit is arbitrary and how are you supposed to remember that water freezes at 32° and boils at 212°. I guess American brains are just able to retain more.
Bicycle is fine because it’s an everyday object I can visualise, but what the hell am I supposed to do with 800 burgers?
Eat em!
Unfortunately, I have an eating disorder that limits my diet severely. Burgers don’t make the list, I’m afraid.
But you don’t have to eat a weight to understand how heavy it feels. Just picking it up is usually sufficient (within human lifting range of course).
