Yes!
Having had a lengthy education in structural engineering this was the bain of my existence!
Regardless this would be incredibly difficult to actually implement and take over a century to fully adopt but providing a dual system for the foreseeable future would be ideal. But after a decade or 2 we should mandate governments to accept only Metric like for drawings for building departments.
Also, Metric mass and weight units are much clearer than SAE, most people don’t even know what a slug is or even what the difference is between mass and weight.
But admittedly, it’s not perfect…
One problem I have with Metric is that there is no foot or really inch equivalent in metric. For example, 6ft would be 182.88cm and something like 10in would be 25.4cm. In summary, they use cm to cover too large of a section of the length spectrum 
.
This idea is similar to the argument to keep DLS. Just because it’s the status quo does not make it the best solution.
Even NASA currently uses metric because it is far better than SAE. And if others used Metric we wouldn’t have issue like this

The conversion is trivial in most cases, especially in software, but the uniformity this adoption would provide would be HUGE!
