You spew that as if you think it actually makes sense. Cindy is quite
correct in her comment about people being able to detect a change of
temperature of only one degree Fahrenheit compared to one degree
Celsius. Then there is the matter of having a scale based on the
temperatures at which water changes state since they are significant not
only in the change of state but the amount of heat involved in those
changes.
Temperature is only one factor in our perception of heat. Humidity is
important enough that most weather reports now include wind chill or
"feels like." Very low or very high temperatures are easier to handle in
a dry climate. I found 100 F plus in dry areas of California more
comfortable than mid 80s F around here. It does not take long for most
people to associate the Celsius equivalents with comfort ranges.

Too frustrating for you to make a valid argument?
