You just described the difference between -5C and -15C without any difficulty at all.
After converting to Fahrenheit lol.
It’s what you’re used to.
That’s kind of my whole point. It’s what I’m used to, and you listing out the Celsius scale breakdown isn’t going to convince me to want to use Celsius for everyday uses. Of course I could get used to it, but it would take a wholesale, nationwide switch, just like it took the UK. Until then, telling me how much better Celsius is is just pissing into the wind, and honestly, a little underinformed.
I haven’t listed any scales. That was someone else. I just chipped in to point out that arguing about scales or which one is better is pointless. You like what you’re used to, which as I said I’d fine, it’s just dumb to be passionate about something that’s arbitrary. The only reason other people are trying to convince you that Celsius is fine it’s because it’s pointless for humanity as a whole to have different measurement units in different countries.
At some point the people living in the middle of the North American continent will have to switch, it might be 1000 years from now but the standardisation will come eventually. There will be loads of people like you complaining, but then once the switch happens it’ll be absolutely fine and nothing of value will be lost. All the arguing that will happen between then and now about which system is better will have been pointless.
The reason we even care is that maintaining two systems is heavily impractical and adds to confusion all around the world - simply because 4% of world’s population can’t bother to make a change.
We wouldn’t care what you use - perfect barbecue temperature scale, length unit of football field, weights in blue whales - if it wouldn’t affect the rest 96% of the world who have to decipher your blubber.
Everyone uses Celsius and metric, make a damn switch, it’s not that hard and you won’t lose anything. You only use it because you’ve used to it, there is literally nothing else to it. Everyone switched, everyone’s happy with it. Do it already.
P.S. Also, Fahrenheit is currently officially defined through Celsius, as a scale that is at 32 degrees on melting point of water (0°C), and 212 degrees on its boiling point (100°C).

Seconding this.

Let it sink in.
Fahrenheit is modernly defined through Celsius.
