    You’re not alone, but the idea of a movment to duodecimal hasn’t had traction in a long time: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duodecimal#Advocacy_and_“dozenalism”

    Fun fact, you can count from 1 to 12 on one hand by touching your thumb to count your finger bones, as there are 12 of them. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finger-counting#Asia
