Its kind of impossible to use something different than the system we use now though because no matter what the one is it is one of something and not two of it. What we should be inquiring is the nature of units and how they are related to the natural numbers. I would not say that Pi is more natural than a natural number because there are few natural units that can be expressed in pi, in fact there are none. you cant have pi apples, or pi heartbeats, or anything of substance.
