Because one nation defined the yard during one period in history, another
nation defined the meter during another period in history, they didn't consult
with each other, and there was never any reason why either of those units
should be longer, shorter, or the same length as the other one. It's only the
purest coincidence that they wound up being within 10% of the same length.
