Who bundles up in 68F? It’s literally room temperature
Also it’s useful in cooking because it’s an actual, useful scale. You know when it’s 90C it’s about to be boiling, just makes no sense why you gotta memorize 212F. Random number and all
people actually use boiling water to calibrate their meat thermometers, but they always forget to check their elevation. boiling point here is 205 degrees, and 7 degrees matters when say chicken is safe at 160 but you actually pulled it off at 155

Never said “bundling up”. But that 10 degree range is so big as to be useless. 68 is not in the same category as 86.
What? How often are you putting thermometers in whatever it is you’re boiling? You just heat it until it boils. It doesn’t matter what the number is.
Thank you for making sense lol. Who’s putting a meat thermometer in water to make sure it’s boiling? It’s boiling when it’s boiling.

100 is absolutely a random number, just fetishized.
i dunno, 68F on a cloudy windy day isn’t as pleasant as 68F and sunny.
But then again I’m from Ohio and I won’t bother to put on so much as a vest until it hits 50s
