Tennis uses multiples of 15, but only up to 45, calls other points weird names, then closes a set, which has to be repeated at least 6 times for a separate scoring, with said scoring also needing to be repeated AT LEAST 3 more times, but can be dragged out ad infinitum.
Even table tennis has the decency of using a straight scoring system where 11 points wins a set and 2 sets wins the match.
Man, if only the decimal system had been invented before clocks, they could simply make it “4 points with at least 2 point advantage”, like 4-2, 5-3, 6-4, etc.
There’s still the whole mess of using 2 extra layers of “score this much with 2 point advantage”, because I guess people don’t have anything better to do than watch a game go on for 6+ hours
They really didn’t, though. You think the average factory worker was in the stand watching their betters hit those balls? And look at cricket ffs!
