That is not why fahrenheit works the way it does. This is something Americans have appropriated as a silly and poor excuse for using it. "cold" and "hot" are completely arbitrary and subjective terms, and the 0-100 range is as arbitrary.
That will come as a surprise to the billions of people using it every day for exactly that purpose. You are projecting your own ignorance over billions of people, because you yourself have no idea how it works.
You're entirely right, but it's fun to trigger people like you with a couple words that ultimately mean nothing.
You mistake ignorance for simply not giving a fuck. I know what Celsius is, I know how it converts, I just don't care.
It's very entertaining to be able to trigger people at will to crawl out of the like bugs and talk shit online, wasting their time on a topic that doesn't matter in the slightest. It's usually the Europeans, they seem to have a superiority complex about this specifically for some reason and love typing at length about it. Most other countries outside the EU region don't bother, probably because it doesn't matter.
Also, here's the obligatory reminder to the Europeans that the US began using metric in 1866 and officially switched to the metric system in 1975, it just wasn't made mandatory to switch, so most didn't. Because it doesn't really matter for daily life which system is used.
Hey. Remember when the beagle spacecraft totally slammed into the Martian countryside because someone used imperial units? 2 year wait for some good times.
At least it avoided the Martian urban areas.
