>So calling it "Frankenstein and Science" is a little silly, especially when we have an absolute scientific scale (Kelvin). That was unnecessary, an obvious joke about both, and how people feel about them, etc. C and K scale the same way, so C is just an offset K (or vise versa). Both C and F are arbitrary, of course - zero (as developer) being the phase change of the water does make more sense to me; again arbitrary.
