   Must be weird for Europeans to use celcius for human body temps. there’s such a huge difference between 98.6f (normal body temp) and 100f (pretty sick). In Celsius that’s 37 and 37.77 degrees respectively.

     @Ghislaine @db Same reason F is good for mundane things. It’s the scale.

     @griffith @db why does 0-100 being related to water freezing and boiling help with anything other than that very narrow thing.

     @db I dont really get why it would be good for science either unless you’re doing something involving boiling and freezing water. Kelvin I get because 0 is actually 0

     celcius scale is too small to properly represent the temperatures that human beings generally exist (0-100F). celcius is fantastic in the science and engineering worlds.
