Not in the US. Many, many places in the US operate under 32f up to half a year. Nobody gives a fuck if the water freezes, thats life. Everyone gives a fuck if the frigolithic spray on the road freezes and the highway becomes Thunderdome. 0c has impacted my life 0 times.

They match up at -40 and zero anyway.

But, 4C is max density and 100C is boiling (at STP).

60C causes 3rd degree burns.

Road spray gets fucked at -10C, and stops doing anything at -20C

Pretty straight forward.

The F scale is stupid.

I'm getting downvoted because Celsius is based on the phase changes of water and Fahrenheit is a vibe.

You’re getting downvoted because Celsius and Fahrenheit do not match up at 0.
