any time more precision is required than inches or large fractions of a cup then imperial is hell and should not be used.

kelvin is a more fundamental representation in physics (although if you want to get really fundamental you have to get boltzmann’s constant involved)

celsius is just kelvin shifted up to more easily describe what you’re most likely to encounter in the lab

we had a great kettle for most of my life but over time its gotten less good at knowing when it has boiled so it ends up just boiling off some of the water more and more. so we got a replacement recently. a nice replacement. proper kettle. Abysmal dogshit. the filter has been falling out and it pouts whenever you try to pour any water out of it so I have to use my weak little baby wrists to turn it fucking 80 degrees

In like imperial units you can just pick a single one and stick with it to get the factors-of-10 thing, like that’s a real convenience but it’s not the best thing in the world. The best thing in the world is being able to effortlessly convert between units of volume and length and when dealing with water weight and specific heat and force and and and
