yeah but it's convenient to have 10-degree differences instead of 5-degree differences for getting dressed. plus i definitely adjust my car thermostat by 2 or 3 degrees. i guess you could do that in celsius too with your weird half-degree thermostats but what a pain in the ass.
My car just has a red bar and a blue bar that determines how cold the air is. The other thing reads to me like the guy who told me he didn't like football because the numbers were too small.
in this case my main gripe is the numbers take up too much space but you're right that as far as thermostats go, it's a minor nitpick. really everything about units of measure is a minor nitpick though.
