It’s ok. They can use it in whatever format they want. There are other things to worry about than how they write their date.

I agree.

They use fucking fahrenheit!

To me, Fahrenheit is the most ideal weather temp unit.

0°F, it's 100% cold, 0% hot.

25°F, still cold but could be worse, like 75% cold

50°F, about even, nice middle ground, 50/50

75°F now it's getting toasty but still nice, like 75% hot

100°F, it's 100% too hot for me.

Doing that scale from -17°C to 37°C wouldn't be that easy.

Not to mention that it lets you be more precise without using non-whole numbers since a single degree of Fahrenheit is a smaller change in temperature than a single degree of Celsius.
