Do you mean that builders using inch aren't as exact?
If so why and since when?
Since ever, the standard brick has a wide margin of
error. Besides there is no need to be exact, close enough
has been a common builders term since Stonehenge if not
earlier.
If you can explain why those in your 'backyard' didn't have to be exact as
late as in early Modern Age, but those who built for example Cathedrals in
other part of Europe in Medieval Age had to as did those who built the
pyramids,
if you can explain that I might believe you. Up to that point not.
