F was designed for humans, while C is apparently designed for water. Half of your list talks about what water does, or are fairly meaningless numbers to humans.

F was designed for humans, while C is apparently designed for water. Half of your list talks about what water does, or are fairly meaningless numbers to humans. While pretty much every number on the GPs list is relevant to humans. That is the big difference. In day to day life, the average human doesn't really need to know what temp water changes state. They want to know how comfortable they will be.

We (and most things we eat, and all that white shitty stuff that blocks your commute in a winter day) are made mostly of water. The difference between -1C and 1C can be pretty significant, unlike the difference between -1F (fucking cold) and 1F (duh, fucking cold). * Well, of course all of this is silly pissing match between groups of people who grew up with their favorite measure system, but anyway...
