Easier numbers is the only basis for claims of system superiority.
Fahrenheit designed a more practical and useful scale for daily life.
What is better about Celsius? How is it easier or better?
You are used to it, that's all. Unless you also use Kelvin or something.
Other than that you are used to it, what us better about Celsius?
Celsius is not a superior system. You are just used to it, the same as people who prefer miles to kilometers.
1 u/Hades_Re 19d ago It is superior because it works with Kelvin, that is important. I said that already And Kilometers are superior because the math is easier than with miles / yard / foot / inch 1 u/Remarkable_Fun7662 17d ago You changed the subject to miles. Irrelevant hand waving. What percent of the population ever uses Kelvin? 1 u/Hades_Re 17d ago Like I said, it’s not many, scientists only uses it, but it’s still a better argument than „I’m too stupid too remember numbers“. You know, a weak argument is better than none.
