minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish4•edit-28 months ago👋 Having grown up with Fahrenheit there is a difference between 78 degrees (26ish) and 80 (still 26ish) The increased granularity for human ranges actually is noticeable. If you think I’m advocating for Standard over Metric than you’ve wholly misunderstood me. The metric SYSTEM is hands down the better of the two.
