Not for human centered climate, where 0-100F is a very convenient set of human centric temperatures. 0 is really cold, 100 is really hot
Where is freezing? That is a pretty important one particularly for driving or freezing pipes? So 40 is really hot, 20 is decent, 0 is freezing and -20 is cold and -40 is really cold. And water boils typically around 100.
I mean, ignoring zero in Calvin, it is all arbitrary when it comes to temperature. Just celsius likes to land some key numbers on human centric values.
Where is freezing in Celsius? Because it's very unlikely to be 0 where you happen to be at any given time.
Water boiling is totally irrelevant to what we care about as humans living in an environment
Your trolling entertains me.
100% serious and this is a hill in willing to die on
