Well a first step would be to stop producing bolts in ".

Other than that leaves a huge market for SAE spec bolts for use in maintaining the already imperial equipment. As it's more cost effective to repair up to a point. So some company WILL produce those bolts.

Which is why we're here with both types of units, and why it'll be 100+yrs before imperial actually dies.
