How about just slipperyness? The fact that you can't farm and thus have no reliable food source? The fact your water souce disappears?
I'll admit, no method of measurement is perfect as biomes changes too drastically. This doesn't mean Fahrenheit is better though. It's not more intuitive, it's not better at actual measurements, and it's not as accepted by society ('cause people way smarter than me did find Fahrenheit worse than Celcius (see any above high school science/engineering))
To explain the more intuitive, I am literally incapable of using Fahrenheit, and it means fuck all to me. Thus my intuition is incapable of using it, and thus Fahrenheit isn't naturally understandable. Granted, Celcius isn't either.
if 0-100 isnt intuitive, the scale was never the problem
