I love it when it’s -10% hot in winter nights or 110% hot around the equator. Makes perfect sense.

Yes, it does a better job of impressing that is all of the hot (or cold), and then 10% more than the difference between 38 and 43

Any of the systems is better if you have an intuitive understanding of it. I don’t know what 107 F would feel like, just as you don’t know what 42°C feels like. But it’s not a thing where one is inherently better than the other…

Yes, it does, actually, if you understand how thermal energy works.
