Do you think maybe if you have to write an essay to prove Celsius is more user friendly it might not be?
Why are you talking about baking, obviously Celsius is better for baking.
Temperatures sure seem to get more dangerous around 100F than 100C you’re being intentionally pedantic.
You’re trying to use extreme weather events to pretend I said it never goes above 100F or that exceptional weather can have exceptional effects. Could you be more disingenuous?
And it’s overwhelming obvious you’re from England and haven’t experienced various climates. The US (ya know the ones still using F) has a hell of a lot more varied climates that generally can go between 0F in winter and 100F in summer (I said generally. Don’t bother with another “acchtually” response).
A normal person going to work doesn’t care when distilled water boils or freezes. Read my comment again. I’m talking about a niche situation outside of scientific context. I am not and never did argue that C is better that F except for a very narrow set of use cases. I am 100% for the adoption of C in the states but you need to understand the pros and cons and why people would be reluctant. Keep your head in the sand I guess I really don’t care to prove a very simple point to you if you still haven’t got it
Ultimately how humans experience and deal with tempurature has nothing to do with the scale we use to measure it, but what it is compared to what we are used to and how prepared we are to protect ourself against being “too hot” or “too cold”. It’s pretty much a perfect example of subjectivity.
If you prefer to use F than C, or K, or any other method, then go for it. But to try and argue that either method is inheriantly better or superior based solely on subjectivity is a fools errand.
Holy shit you are dense. What does your personal experience have to do with other countries experiences and how adapt another system is to their situation? You see how those are unrelated right? You are aware that you use Celsius right???

I absolutely agree.
But that was not your original argument though.
The real argument for Fahrenheit isn’t from a research perspective, it has a better UX for weather because it’s focused on the human experience.
You are/were, at that point, trying to argue that F is objectively better. All of my comments, including my first one, are pointing out that not only does F mean nothing to me because I don’t use it, but also that what I consider hot or cold is different to someone living in a hotter or colder country than me.
There is no objectivity in how humans experience temperature on a personal level, it is all subjective and based on what we are used to.
If F works for you in the way you describe that’s great. But to claim that counts for everyone is simply wrong.
There’s literally nothing else I can say on this, so if you fancy having the last word then go ahead.

Wow.
Btw, I literally said I live in the north of England a few messages ago.
What’s your point?
As covered in my essay.
