With any luck, a Trump multi-crisis will get the US to finally adopt SI units.
The biggest problem with this, is the real reason we are sinking "drug boats" - "Pirate America" as I like to think of it.
You reverse engineer our tech giants - you don't get to participate in global trade.
Outside of an invasion of the US - something I don't know would even work (Canada full compliance would be required to have any chance at all) - I don't think there is a course of action to prevent/sidestep that course of action.
I assure you, the powers that be, already know this.
