Well, I DO know how the French count and compared to English it IS highly confusing. You can hardly convince me that saying "Four times twenty and ten" is as straight forward as saying "Nine tens".
And just to be clear: I'm not some Yankee or Brit with a superiority complex, no, I am German, and we have our own shitty version of this: Instead of moving along the digits from highest to lowest, as in "Four hundreds and two tens and nine", we do "Four hundred and nine and two tens".
I guess we can blame the French's confusing number system for that.
You can turn off tasks which you don't want to do.
Have you heard of Streetcomplete? If not it's an app which turns OSM mapping into a game of sorts.
It shows bubbles for missing information at your current location. I.e. what's the surface type of this particular road or way? What kind of parking lot is this? What are the opening hours of this shop?
In a voting system such as the US its the natural outcome that you vote against the guy you don't want but not for the person you want.
CGP Grey did a fantastic video series on YouTube about different systems for voting.
