I agree.  gradians are not often used at all, AFAICT.

I've never seen anyone use a gradian, even though my calculator had them when I was 16.

I even misread the request, thinking he meant "radians". Definitely -1 to gradians in PostgreSQL.

Also -1 to furlongs, fortnights, pecks and hundredweight, amongst others.
