Hey I’m American and think we should switch to metric. While Celsius has a more objective basis than Fahrenheit, doesn’t seem like the same slam dunk as the other measurements.
Are there applications where we’re measuring in centicelsius or kilocelsius? There aren’t weird non-base ten increments of Fahrenheit. In Fahrenheit 0 is cold and 100 is hot as well…
I’m still fine changing to it, just doesn’t seem to have the same “in your face” value for this graphic.
We do use metric in America. All the time actually. It’s taught in high school science classes. We use it in science, medicine, aerospace, military, and engineering.

I too live in America and grew up here. I know what metric is. But it’s not dominant, which I think you know.
It is in all the areas that matter. Who cares if our road signs and weather reports aren’t.
