    It gets way easier for “feel” of weather too! In most habitable places in the world, 0°C is around as cold as you’ll regularly see (also a handy number for when you need to watch for ice). Similarly, 40°C is around as high as most habitable places get, also a nice easy number to work with.

    In fahrenheit, these numbers are 30 and 105, I mean I can get rounding down for ease of use but you’re moving the reference points a lot to make it 25 to 100 for what you usually see and that’s certainly not more intuitive than 0-40
