That’s just you being used to the imperial system. I have no problem describing the difference between 0°C, 20°C and 40°C.
40 degrees.
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):
40 degrees.

I’m not saying it’s impossible to describe the difference in Celsius. What I’m saying is that the resolution is finer, and with the scale of 0 to 100 is quick to understand.
The fact is we like to have a scale between zero and 100 for things. That’s what Fahrenheit is for weather. I understand you don’t agree, but that doesn’t change the fact that it is. I use both C and F. I prefer F for weather.
