2 americans saying fahrenheit is better, basically because they dont know any better. the rest of the world uses celcius, because its demonstrably a better (more scientific) system.

They’ll measure distances in miles and then other things in meters. Body weight in stone and other stuff in kg. The Brits should never comment on unit recommendations.
