    I’d argue that you would definitely feel a difference in those temps between them if you were used to scale that allowed for smaller variation. 52°F for someone used to living in a cold climate can still be quite pleasant but I find at under 50°F the amount of time I can spend outside without proper bundling shortens with each couple degrees.

    It’s like knowing whether I can run out the garbage real quick without bothering with a coat at a glance. I think it does a good job of helping convey a self learned length of time of comfort better in fahrenheit without having to remember decimals which many people are too dumb to use.

      11°C for someone used to living in a cold climate can still be quite pleasant but i find at under 10°C the amount of time I can spend outside without proper bundling shortens with each degree.

      …means pretty much the exact same thing.
