Okay so you’re making lot of weird assumptions here. I don’t know how hot weather 37°C feels, other than that for me 30+ is absolute hell. I’ve never experienced heatwave that bad for what I remember. Hottest summer days here are just about 30°C, and it’s miserable.
Reference point means that I’m able to easily understand what that temperature is.
I can easily understand 100°C though, sauna is getting too hot and I should open window and chill down with feeding the fire.
For 0-30 I can easily understand how I should dress outside, and 0°C is easy to understand because just above it and I know it’s going to be wet and slippery if there was negatives before it, and below 0 is slippery if there was positives earlier.
What is intuitive to you is totally a subjective experience based on your earlier experiences and what you’re used to use to measure temperatures.
Lmao your sauna is not clearing 100C, that’s well past the point at which saunas can become hazardous to your health. If you genuinely run your sauna that hot then start looking into competitions because you’re gonna blow all those professionals out of the water.
Also I’m not making any assumptions here. That’s just you trying to grasp at straws to save your failing argument. You don’t know what 37C feels like? Weird, I know what 100F feels like. I guess fahrenheit is just more intuitive than Celsius (by your logic, anyway).
Also, all you’ve done is list a bunch of understandings about Celsius that depend entirely on experience and prior knowledge. “Above 0 is like this, below is like that, I know how to dress for 0-30” This is all stuff you had to be taught/learn, the exact opposite of intuitive.
But I can say to someone unfamiliar with either system “Fahrenheit is a 0-100 scale of hot how it is outside” and they know almost everything they need to know about fahrenheit.

In International Sauna Championships the sauna was heated to 110°C. Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Sauna_Championships?wprov=sfla1
Dry sauna at 100°C is not terribly hot feeling, but then again I don’t like dry sauna. In those competitions the sauna was NOT dry, but water thrown onto the rocks every 30sec. That’s actual hell to be in

Exactly. Because that is required to understand what the numbers mean. Congratulations for understanding what I said while completely missing the point

Fahrenheit is none of that. It requires prior knowledge and understanding where the scale lies. By your logic, 50°F should be perfectly nice ambient temperature, but in reality it’s plenty cold enough for hypothermia
What makes you think humans, an endothermic species, desires exactly 50% thermal energy? We enjoy the 70F region because we are warm blooded mammals.
“In International Sauna Championships the sauna was heated to 110°C” Yeah. And 2 people collapsed, 1 died from it. https://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-10912578 A 5-time champion who had excellent tolerance.
“Exactly. Because that is required to understand what the numbers mean (in celsius)”
Exactly, because fahrenheit doesn’t require such a random set of arbitrary associations. Congratulations for understanding what I said while trying so hard to miss the point.
Look, you can argue all you want. The fact is that both systems have their applications. I don’t believe you genuinely disagree with this statement. I think you’re just here because you want to sling shit at people that are different than you. Nothing you say will make Celsius better at determining ambient temperature, nothing you say will make fahrenheit better for use in a lab. Get over it.
