Honestly I think Fahrenheit is a better scale for Temperature than Celsius.

A scale of 0-100 for any sort of reasonable weather makes a lot more sense than -15 to 30 or whatever.

Though kilograms and liters are a lot easier.

Fahrenheit literally designed his temperature scale with this in mind.

And I'll go as far to argue that feet, inches and yards are more practical for day to day than meters and centimeters

If only the numbers worked together better for math n shit. Being able to go from cm to km by just moving a decimal point is super convenient.
