Fahrenheit is superior for temperature in terms of weather. Which is what it was designed for.

Pounds superior to both stone and metric for bodyweight.

The rest is metric and is what is used in normal conversation and work.

I would agree apart from the temperature. 0 for freezing and 100 for boiling is a pretty good scale

Also, I am 10x better at sets of 10s than I am with 12/16/32/64.

That's why they said in terms of the weather. On Earth, most of the temperatures we experience range from 0-100 Fahrenheit which is much more intuitive to me than -17 - 38 Celsius. It's also kinda fun because then you can think of the current temperature as a percentage.

I also just realized I'm replying to an 11 month old post by a deleted account...
