If you didn't notice, it's currently the US people who go around in this topic saying that Fahrenheit is "objectivly better" or makes "more sense" and that Celsius is "cartoonishly arbitrary" and that our countries are "worse off" for using it.
It's better for human usage for temperature control of HVAC/Heating/Cooling units, but only in that instance.
Granted that's a very common use case.

I still prefer using Celsius for figuring out if my Electronics are overheating since if you're anywhere near 100C, your CPU/GPU will have a very bad time.

The (1-100)C scale is superior for electronics temperature stability and easier to understand.

Never did I say that Celsius is superior at all.
There are some folks that believe Celsius/Metric is superior to all, along with trying to force the last hold-out of measurement systems to convert.

But when I hear others making up some arguments like "EVERYONE is acquainted with it, so it's better!", ofc I shake my head and say "wtf, no".
It's better for us in the US, you folks have already converted and prefer to stay converted.
