I get metric for everything else, but °F is the better system for everyday/non scientific use. I will die on this hill.

That's because Fahrenheit is % of hot, based on what we feel. Therefore, °F is better for everyday use.

The one you use is the better system. I want to know whether I should bring a sweater. The system is arbitrary.
