I propose a temperature scale that works like this. It should end all the bickering between °F and °C
100: you’re alive, but don’t want to be 🥵
80s: hot
70s: perfect
60s: nice
50s: brisk
40s: cold
30s: freezing
0: you’re alive, but don’t want to be 🥶

We can all agree that most places people will want to live will be right in the middle, but we’ll leave flexibility on either end for extremes.
Thus, any reasonable climate will flex from 0° ↔ 100°. Like percent.
However, < 0° and > 100° are possible, just not recommended.

Again, the new system is basically a percentage, which is lovely. It is built around the lived experience of a human being — not something silly like when water boils.
Every band of ~10 degrees is broadly analogous. But the difference between each degree is indeed noticeable.

Surprise! You just learned Fahrenheit.
