HomokHarcos said: I almost never like to state my opinions as facts. However my one exception is Celsius being better than Fahrenheit. I mean, who could think the opposite? Let's compare the basics. Celsius freezes at 0 and boils at 100. Fahrenheit freezes at 32 and boils at 212. Celsius is more logical. |
Which is nothing, really. They are both points on a scale. The human brain can adjust easily.
The same can be said for the importance of centering a scale around water temperature. It's just not really very important.
What IS more important to most people is precision, in which case the longer scale is more useful.
