About Inch (in)

An imperial unit of length equal to 1/12 of a foot (25.4 millimeters exactly). Inches are the everyday US unit for body height, screen and TV diagonal sizes, paper margins, plumbing fittings (pipe diameters), and tool dimensions. The international inch was fixed at exactly 25.4 mm by the 1959 yard-and-pound agreement. Despite most global industries switching to millimeters, inches are still dominant in US manufacturing, woodworking, and consumer electronics sizing — notably the ubiquitous "55-inch TV" style spec.

About Mile (mi)

An imperial unit of length equal to 5,280 feet (1,609.344 meters).

Marathon distance is 26.219 miles; US speed limits are in miles per hour; American geography — state sizes, road trips, fuel economy — is almost always expressed in miles. Converting to kilometers is one of the most common length conversions on the internet.
