I once re-purposed (with Katie's help) the 12c+ calculator as a base 12 machine; I forget which two keys I used as A and B. It was fun to play with, but had no practical value.

That is wild. I would love to see the program if you find it. I agree, we are far too invested in base 10, which is fine. Base 10 comes in handy for dividing, halving, and working with factors of 5 and 9.
