You can quite sensibly measure your room in those units but the metric units are very much easier to use which is why most of the world has 'gone metric'. It would not be sensible to measure your room in kilometres would it . The choice of unit usually depends upon the degree of accuracy you need . For a room you only need accuracy to the nearest inch. For a bolt you need to make it so that it is accurate to the nearest 'tenth of a millimetre' or the nearest ' hundredth of an inch'.
