You mean it’s good for outdoor temps only Americans care about. Here in the rest of the world, we have very different weather to you people, so we need a wider scale.
I know, but the Americans are the only ones in this thread acting like every person and place in their country shares a single range of weather temperatures, so I pretended to cede that point. It makes for a good rhetorical technique.

That’s why Fahrenheit is good for outdoor temps only humans care about and Celsius is good for everything else
