    You can do that with every unit though. How does that make any more sense than inches or ounces?

      Meters and grams are a decimal system which makes more sense than non decimal systems.

      The difference in temperature units is just the somewhat arbitrary starting points. And there are valid arguments for both.

      There are more degrees of lived temperatures, and the difference between 68 and 73 is whether or not you need a jacket.

      Inches and ounces are different forms of measurement so I’m not quite sure of the comparison.

        I have been and lived in both the FREEDOM land and the rest of the world for a significant period of time 10y+, the “it has more marks on the thermometer” isn’t really a good argument, turns out there is no “71° time for a slightly warmer jacket” in reality.

          As an ohioan I strongly disagree with this statement

            as a Floridian; your crazy is crazier, that makes your argument invalid, deal with it.
