In my new scale, °X, 0 is Earths’ record lowest surface temperature, 50 is the global average, and 100 is the record highest, with a linear scale between each point and adjustment every year as needed.

I mean the imperial system has it’s niche uses too. Fractional measurements are helpful if you’re doing multiple of something and you don’t want to calculate. What if you have 16 boards and you need to lay them out across 19 feet, what’s the width for each board and gap? Well its 19/16 or 1-3/16. And you could say your tolerance is ±1/16. Versus a decimal system, you need to hit 1.1875, with a ±0.0625 tolerance. Yeah no, imperial is better in that case.
Bur imperial does have it’s pains, especially once you start working with anything that isn’t a multiple of 2. Just wanted to point out it does have some uses.
