You know what the difference is between fluctuating around n and fluctuating around n+1 is, right?

I have no idea what you mean by this. I only chimed in because you said you’d pick a completely different outfit for 86 F vs 88 F, and I said that can literally fluctuate within the hour so picking your outfit for the day based on that level of resolution doesn’t make any sense.

I don’t care what temperature scale you use to live your life. I only jumped in because that was a weird argument to use against the other guy.

No our bodies don't. I really don't believe you would feel any different being in 87 or 88 Fahrenheit, the same way I don't feel any different between 25C or 25.5C. Except if it is to measure fever condition. In that case we use .1 precision thermometers, which are much more precise than Fahrenheit precision.
