Yeah, it makes total sense, historically, how we got to this point. I just like to take a step back sometimes and appreciate the silliness of language. Not trying to assign blame, but just notice: hey it's kind of screwed up that totally opposite descriptions of a temp are both correct depending on context.
"This 5,000 K light bulb is cooler than this 2,000 K light bulb."
"This 5,000 K molten iron is hotter than this 2,000 K molten iron."
- htfu 7y agoYeah, some kind of lede/lead type separation would make sense. But in a sense there already is one as K barely sees layman usage outside color temp, so your second sentence isn't likely.
