Then you look at the temperature and think eh…45 isn’t that bad. We’ll survive. That will be the moment the wind whips up and sleet starts hitting you in the face.
IMO there is no reason to cling to the idea that feet and yards, Fahrenheit, pounds snd ounces, cups and pints make any sense.….it’s kind of embarrassing as an American. We should have just bit the bullet and switched 40 years ago but we are lazy and have no willpower.
We should start calling them freedom degrees and just own that we are stubborn for no reason.
Using -10 - 40 as a range of temperatures experienced by humans makes way less sense than 0 - 100. We’re a base 10 species so it’s much better for regular use.
Metric aficionados rightly point out that the other measures are all nicely base 10, so why doesn’t that argument hold for temperature too? Celsius is inferior.
Water boils at 100 celcius and freezes at zero. Most temp ranges are (~)-40 to +40 (for now). Each base 10 you speak of gets a slightly different outfit. It’s intuitive and easy to plan for.
Except when water doesnt boil or freeze at 0/100; Based off altitude or salinity and some other things. You dont need a whole temperature scale based off those 2 factors. Water will boil when it bubbles on the stove, and will freeze when it turns solid in the freezer. Kelvin is better for scientific numbering. Fahrenheit is better for daily life.
I will admit, distance and volume measuring is better metric. I'm so sick of having to play the math game of teaspoons to tablespoons to cups etc. Distance is easier too once you use it for a while. I bet you could ask a ton of people how far a mile is, and many wouldnt be able to give you distance in feet...
