Yes I mistyped 80vs86.

Oh, thought you were being sarcastic.

But are you seriously saying you can't tell the difference between 68 and 86? That's absolutely absurd

I’m imagining your place as just filled with coats

Yes I live in San Francisco, I have several coats.

and thermometers

My thermostat and my phone. So "full"

Correct I literally can't tell the difference. That's 100% what I'm saying. (Yeap that was sarcasm)

I'm saying 68 and 86 are both T-shirt weather. And 20-30 is more meaningful to me than 68-86. That's it. That's all.

And 20-30 is more meaningful to me than 68-86. That’s it.

Of course it is, because 68-86 is just the translation. No one would actually use that range. But that's my whole point, 60-70 and 70-80 are better, more meaningful ranges

Meaningful to you. not to most folks.

After all that you're fine with "eh it's just translation." then why not try a system that has some meaning to it at all instead of arbitrary numbers. At least that's what literally everyone else is saying to you in the comment section.

And hey you can decide 20-25 is not T-shirt weather for yourself and 25-30 is. Crazy right?
