I pointed something similar with regard to thermometers to a group of European tourists. In Farenheidt, 98.6 is the normal temperature and if you are getting sick, people will say that 99 is a low-grade fever. While that is a. 4 degree difference in F, that’s only a .2 difference in C.
Likewise for weather, F is much more precise and easier to communicate given that there is a smaller interval between units. There’s more than 2 units difference in F for every 1 unit difference in C. That’s huge when you’re talking about the difference between 38 and 39 C
Lol, you have to use fractional measures because each degree is further apart. I thought I had made that point. Sure you won’t ever get rid of all fractional measuring in any system, but it’s much easier if you don’t have to use as much
Not on my AC unit. I’d love a fractional temp for perfection, but I can’t get it because integers values for Celsius have a noticeably large gap between them.

It may astonish you to learn that it’s very easy to work in fractional degrees Celsius and it’s done commonly.
