Your metrics of quality would also favor the cubit as the standard of
length. Based on the forearm, it meets all the criteria you have laid out
as advantageous. Unfortunately it meets none of the criteria that engineers
and scientists hold as more important than your personal thoughts:
stability, precision, reproducibility. It may occur to you that there is a
valid reason the cubit is no longer in use as a standard unit. Or maybe it
won't occur to you, since you seem to favor a return to basic Aristotelian
analysis of the world. 

I think you'd be much happier in a different age. Some century far removed
from this one, in fact.
