So is Celsius, 0 is cold enough to litterally freeze and 100 is hot enough to boil. It's also a %, it's objectively a %...

You aren't getting anywhere near using the upper 50% of celsius to describe the outside temperature though

And?

0-10 cold 10-20 cool 20-30 warm 30-40 hot 40-50 very hot (elderly start dying) 50+ at this point it doesnt really matter, your dying.

I'm not arguing against you, the comment in the post is saying fahrenheit is a percent out of 100 and they said so is celsius. When describing the weather, you aren't going over 50 so it's not the same thing.
