I've always hated this justification of Fahrenheit. For it to be a good argument, 50 °F would need to be the ideal comfortable temperature. But instead 50 is really fucking cold. 100 just isn't as hot as 0 is cold.

I think it depends on the person which is the problem, for me 50 isn't that cold but 100 is completely unbearable
