Am I the only one that prefers evenly divisible track lengths?

I have lots of tracks that are odd length, but if I make a track and it's close to an evenly divisible number (say 3.02 miles) I will try to adjust it to exactly 3 miles. Or if it's 3.24 miles I will try to get it to 3.25 miles.

My thinking is that if you're doing a race in miles an even numbered track length gives a precise answer. A 300 mile race at a 3 mile track is a perfect 100 laps.

I have a 5-mile endurance track that will make a perfect number of laps for any length race. 100 miles, 150 miles, 500 miles...

I'd love to make a 1 2/3 mile oval track. The math works out really beautifully for a 500-mile race at 300 laps. :lol:
 
I've tried to do this a few times unfortunately, it's one of those mild ocd things like turning things around to all face the same way, or putting random things in size order that are lined up on a table lol ;)
 
No, the only thing I prefer in numbers is more, more corners, more elevation, more miles.
