    Only on enemy maps.

    Proper unit of angle is a Point.

    Any other item is foreign gibberish, utterance of which ranks up there with mutiny, sodomy and damaging the paintwork.

    It's standard in all electronics layout software internationally, as well as some 3D modeling and milling machine type CAD stuff - but you're on the right track, the yanks are the only ones still using imperial in engineering so the measurements are still in use and thus still in the tools.

    Admittedly not normally used nowdays, in spite of us having won the war. Never in fact used on maps either. Nevertheless, there was a time when bawling "luff 'er up twenty two degrees, Helm" would have caused some comment on the quarterdeck.

    Fairly chunky angle, best not use that in one in the bush

    Would have been around with the rood?, perch and chain days

    Was good enough to get them home when they had just lead, log and latitude. I can't imagine how.

    Edit: I was taught "point" for describing heading changes, and I aint old.

    Much.
