We’re taught both metric and US customary units in school. I prefer metric for most things, to the point I have a metric-only tape measure among other things.
However, I’ll die on the hill that Fahrenheit is superior for ambient air temperature. 0 degrees to 100 degrees neatly encompasses the range of average surface temperatures seen throughout the year in the contiguous US.
Yeah, that’s what I’m saying. It’s roughly the range, not an exact definition. More humidity, laboring to survive, or not having modern access to water would make 100+ considerably dangerous. Similarly, not having shelter, having high wind, or being wet makes 0- considerably dangerous. So yes, with current tech and convenience, we can casually survive -20 to 120, but it’s still pretty awful.
I was also saying the range in regards to what we can touch and perceive. I know 1000 is very hot and melts some metals, but I can’t really touch a 200 degree pot of water, either. I don’t have intrinsic knowledge of the difference.
