I see more advantage to using base 12 than base 10. First of all, 12 has more factors than 10. 2nd, the prime factors of 12 are 2 and 3 so you could divide the following without having a repeating radix (max 50): 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 16, 24, 32, 36, 48. That is 12 numbers with maximum 50. The same thing with 10 (max 50): 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 16, 20, 25, 32, 40, 50. That's only 11 numbers. Now the same thing with 12 - the same thing with 10: 3, 6, 9, 12, 24, 36, 48. Do you see why base 12 is better?
