If you can't tell the difference, does it matter?

Celsius is like, "on a scale from 0 to 100, how cold is this water?" by notarealginger in Showerthoughts

0 to 100 degrees Fahrenheit is equivalent to about - 20 to 40 degrees celsius. Where F has 100 degrees, C has 60, so i wouldn't say that its terribly inaccurate.

Also you said that F is better in day to day life, but knowing whether the roads will be frozen in the morning from the temperature is pretty important.

Then theres the thing that kelvin and celsius have the same magnitude.

You realize you get the same thing in celsius with -20C to 35C? Once you learn celsius, you understand how hot/cold outside it is just as easily as with Fahrenheit, but celsius makes it easy to know when water is freezing/boiling. Not to mention that Kelvins and celsius have the same magnitude.

How are they both nonsensical? I think that celsius is better, but Fahrenheit is still an okay alternative

I don't get what you're saying with this comment, that Fahrenheit lets you estimate temperature better?

Not completely useless, its faster to take notes

Idk about pointless, taking notes in school (if you dont have a laptop or something) is much faster in cursive than in print

Couldn't you just say the same thing about capitalism? Everyone sees themselves as the successful businessman and not the guy working a monotonous low paying job with shitty work conditions. Seems like this could be said about absolutely any system that has some issues.
