The temp sensors for the furnace read in Celsius, I convert them.  As
for that chart, the interesting parts were the big gaps and its feeble
attempts to keep up, not the actual temperatures themselves ;-)

Fahrenheit is useful because the normal range of outside temperatures
is 0 to 100 degrees.  It's like metric, but with a more practical
scale.

Besides, we already use the metric system for drugs, soft drinks, and
small pitch parts.  What more do you expect?  ;-)
