Complain all you want about other imperial measures but a temp system that goes from like 0°-100° for most normal human experiences is a lot more practical than what, -15° - 38°?

We should just use both, Fahrenheit for when people are feeling it (or feelinheit m i rite) and Celsius for anything where measuring it matters

Right, like if I need to know the exact temperature that water boils for some reason, 100° C is great. Doesn't really come up, but that's nice I guess.

its useful for cooking and stuff

Doesn't help me when I live at 5600ft/1600m. Water doesn't boil at the same temperature for a lot of people.

Its useful for science, although it isn't even an SI unit and is just as arbitrary as F

Kelvin

Correct, Celsius is not kelvin
