    Where I live temperature in celsius is symmetric about 0. -40 to +40. I think that scaling is easier than -40 to +100.

      Yeah, obviously isn’t the case everywhere, but I think such extreme temperature ranges are kind of rare (excluding random one-off days that are super cold or hot for whatever reason).

      For places that get super cold (like below 0F a lot), generally Celsius probably makes more sense in terms of scaling.
