In my new scale, °X, 0 is Earths’ record lowest surface temperature, 50 is the global average, and 100 is the record highest, with a linear scale between each point and adjustment every year as needed.

Wat. Yanks keep saying this but… wat
50 is about the average temperature for spring and fall. Summer gets closer to 100 to imply hot and winter it drops down closer to 0.
That’s both very dependent on the location and not at all more natural or intuitive to me than Celsius for my area
Yeah well obviously wasn’t planned for a global scale and you can thank European mindset 300 years ago for that so it is definitely scaled for arable land in higher latitudes.
It wasn’t very technical cause I mean they just weren’t back then. Heck ask a baker what a pinch is.
But for trying to come up with a scale to give people a way to talk about the temperature in Poland was the point and it’s just stuck for people that are using it same as those using other methods. It wasn’t and isn’t about you.
This was about “scale makes sense for human experience of weather” in comparison to Celsius though. What I’ve wondered is how does it make any more sense than Fahrenheit.
Yeah and it’s been explained and you avoid it by saying it doesn’t work for you.
So the conversation is over.
I didn’t avoid it, I was just hoping that there’d be an explanation that would make sense. “Well you know, this season is vaguely around this degree in general in some places and this around this, or maybe not, very natural and intuitive” wasn’t very convincing lol. No offense.
It’s only fair to give credit when credit is due. Doesn’t mean I like that unit, but I can see where they’re coming from.
It doesn’t make any sense to me, sorry
