I mean, those are the biggest downsides to metric for all units. 10 is a terrible number, it’s just that uniformity and consistency are better than 10 is bad.
Time is already about as consistent as it’s possible to make it, it just uses 60 instead of 10.
Everyone is already using the same system for the most part, so there’s no real reason to switch.
Units larger than a second also aren’t proper units, because they change length in a semi regular basis, and you can’t change that without making them useless, since they’re based on movement of celestial bodies.
We switched to metric to move away from inconsistency and non standard units, not to move towards the number ten or “old” units.
