The arguments Fahrenheit’s defenders make are not objective, they vary from person to person. Does a hot summer’s day feel like 100%? Yes, no, maybe? For me it doesn’t, I’ve been in a sauna. Does an arbitrary distance below freezing feel like 0%? Or does 0% come earlier, i.e. once you can no longer exist without clothing?
If the defenders made arguments like “it’s neat to have 100° at body temperature” I wouldn’t say anything. But the arguments they make (see my quote) are not factual.

Oh, yeah. All temperature experience is subjective. It’s just that F is closer to “big round numbers” than C for our experiences.
