Metric. 10’s are easy math.

20
Also... Celsius. 0° = freezing water 100° = boiling water 20° = room temperature Such nice, easy numbers to remember.

10
I'm all for metric for everything except temperature. That 0-100 only works for water. Fahrenheit does better at expressing temperature ranges that humans live in. e.g. "50s" (sweaters), "70s" (comfortable), "90s" (too hot).

I dunno though. 0 = jacket 10 = sweater 20 = room temp 30 = hot day Those are pretty straight forward.

fwiw I was determined to switch to Celsius a few years ago, and actually set all my devices to it. I lasted about 8 months, in a temperature range from 10-36, and concluded that Fahrenheit is more expressive and switched back.
