This would get my vote for a helpful bot account, yes.
This guy and the metric converter bot (is he here yet?) are both super helpful and should be encouraged. It’s the joke ones that should be banned, but informational value added to the discussion should be welcomed imo.
I'm not aware of this bot. What does it do?
Converts American units like miles and ounces into normal units like metres and litres.
It should be bi-directional. We don't need bots that are just pedantry disguised as "corrections".
normal units like... bananas.
