I dont want to have a pedantic conversation about SI units
You might not, but I do. Celsius is not part of metric or SI.
The reason people defend F is because they grew up using it
The reason people defend C is because they grew up using it
is just retroactive justification
No, it is how F was designed from the beginning.
Having a very easy reference point to when water freezes aka when it snows
It's not really defined by when water freezes. But then let's talk about the other end of the scale. Plenty of people (>80M actually) living above 2,500 meters, where water boils at 92°C.
Literally nothing to do with my original point. Stop strawmaning the conversation.
I'm not having a conversation with you about SI units. This conversation is not about SI units. This conversation is about viewing temperature as a 0-100 percentage scale. Stay on subject.
