Being myself a European, I would like to say that Americans are less pragmatic and less systematic than Europeans. Besides, the fact that European stock gauges come in the 0-½-1 scale versus the American E-½-F one only supports my claim :P It is not limited to face gauges, however, for we can see the same pattern in bureaucracy, traffic signage, and many other areas. You, guys [Canadians], are somewhere in between ;)
