@@dogwalker666 The reason decimals are never used in Celsius is because they'd look pretty ugly if they were used. Fahrenheit allows you to express a temperature more precisely without resorting to decimals. 24.5C is not as clean as 76F. Also, I am not arguing in favor of American gallons or any other measurement system used in the US (except temperature scale) - as I mentioned earlier, I like European systems much better.

I might be the only non-American who likes Farenheit better than Celcius. See, in everyday contexts, we normally use temperature for weather measurements. The 0-100 portion of F is much more convenient and relevant than the 0-100 portion of C. Hardly ever a need to go into negatives (and miss the minus sign, and mess up difference measurements, etc.), and the granularity is better - "high 70s (F)" is a sensible thing to say whereas "high 20s (C)" is kind of pointless (25 and 30 feel pretty different).

I have a counter point. Many people look at weather forecasts when making travel decisions. Celcius having 0 being freezing mean you can skim through the numbers overnight and if none are below 0 then there won't be ice on the roads. The fact that 0 and 100 are values which people experience very often (ice, steam) it makes it very easy for people to scale. if an oven is 300 (C) without having to think about it everyone knows its 3 time hotter than a kettle gets and so easier to grasp.

Legit the best argument I've heard for farenheit is that you can use the degree number to approximate how warm it will be. 100 degrees will be 100% warm. 70 will be 70% warm, fairly, but not too much. 120 is 120% warm, now you are too warm.
