    I love it when it’s -10% hot in winter nights or 110% hot around the equator. Makes perfect sense.

      Yes, it does a better job of impressing that is all of the hot (or cold), and then 10% more than the difference between 38 and 43

        i assure you, we who grew up with celsius absolutely know the dire difference between 38 and 43. 38 is death, 43 is the crimson realms where even souls wither.

        all this “which one is better for x” is nonsense, you develop a feel for whichever you grew up with. it’s just that the math is less stupid with metric. that’s all.
