How hard is it to add c or f to the end of a tempreture

How the hell are people supposed to know if you are using celsius or fahrenheit

    Until recent years, there was no reason to be ther since you mostly talked to people near you

    But I don’t see how it matters: in normal conversation it’s usually obvious. I work with people in the UK a lot and there’s no impediment to conversations where they complain it’s 35° and I complain it’s 95°. We knots linens summer and we’re talking hot but livable conditions so it’s obvious what units were each using

      So no confusion around temperature but you find other ways to confuse each other?

        For sure, and I don’t even remember what I was trying to say there before Siri “corrected” it
