Weather, cooking, at least people around me don’t use decimals for that. One degree C is not really big enough difference for those two to break down into decimals. Moreso I guess in the sense that one Fahrenheit difference is smaller than the same for Celsius. Do you know people using decimals for daily stuff with C?
Daily? No. Never. I’d actually think it weird if an app or person told me the weather temperature with decimal places. The only place I’d expect to see decimals is body temperature which is not daily and not something you really think about.
I grew up using Celsius but had a thermostat in Farenheit for long enough to get accustomed to them both, at least when it comes to comfortable living temperature ranges. I find they both work fine in that range, but (likely because I grew up with it) find Celsius much more intuitive when it comes to more extreme temperatures.
As said elsewhere, every ten degrees more or less marks different weather ranges for what I can expect to feel and wear that day.
Nobody even uses exact degrees when using Fahrenheit and talking about the weather. You can’t feel the difference between 71 and 72. Most people just round off to the nearest 5 degrees or so when talking about the weather. With Celsius you might be slightly more likely to use a non-rounded value, say 22 degrees instead of 20 or 25. But, you’re almost never going to use fractional degrees.
I don’t think it’s necessary to do in Celsius though?
“Necessary” is a strong word, but it is, moreso than when using Fahrenheit.

I think it’s a straw man personally because most people will still talk in integer amounts.
