that'd be "not quite as well".
7/8" = 22.2mm not 22mm and while that 0.2mm difference don't seem like much, try sanding down the end of a 7/8" handlebar to fit a BMW's 20mm twistgrip.
So if you are borrowing a 7/8"a/f socket be sure it's a 6-point, eh?Fred Hill, S'toon

Ah, c'mon Fred... the difference is only .009" ; a lot of sockets don't have tolerances that good...
