      Sure if we are cooking, doing chemistry or anything else that directly involves liquids and doesn’t need extremely specific values that Celsius isn’t equip to handle.

      The only real difference between f and c is how fine the scale is. That’s it. Literally the ONLY functional difference.

      If you dont need a finer scale then F has no benefits over C and they are entirely equal.

      And realistically if your getting into precision just use fucking kelvin.

      Both F and C objectively suck ass equally. Honestly the only time in my life I’ve found F or C to better is when I need to set the temp on a thermostat. F on cheap thermostats is more reliable as it has less leeway before it kicks on/off. Resulting in a more consistent air temperature.

      C tends to drift more above and below the set point. But nicer thermostats tend to not have that issue anyways. So it’s a moot point most of the time.
