You can use millimeters to describe the size of anything you want to. But if the

thing is too small, like a light wave, then the number will be inconveniently small.

And if the thing is too large, like a battleship or a planet, then the number will be

inconveniently large. Inconveniently large or small numbers are hard to write down,

remember, and tell other people about. Units of many different sizes were invented

so that no matter how large or small the object is, we can always find a unit for its

measurement that produces a convenient number.
