Question

Why a foot step can not be used as standard unit of length ​

Answer 1

A pace or a footstep cannot be used as a standard unit of length because the length of footstep, forearm length and hand span of different person is different. ... So footsteps and other such measuring systems cannot be use as standard unit.
