    I dunno, man. You’ve been driving home this idea that Fahrenheit is a scale and therefore great for intuiting ambient temperature, you can’t just turn around and be all ‘Well OBVIOUSLY 50% isn’t the neutral point.’

    In any scale where 0 is dangerously low and 10 is dangerously high, 5 would be a happy medium.

        It’s how useful scales work.

        But well done on the Herculean effort you’ve put forth in demonstrating your general ignorance.
