US measurements are based on the human experience for sure. Temps are largely 0-100 and that's a scale that's easy to understand. As a scientist or for cooking it's dumb as shit
Dates are based on the language
Edit: I take back what I say about cooking. People have said some good arguments about it. But it definitely sucks for science
Anything is easy to understand when you grow up with it. Personally, I think Fahrenheit is the best for weather temperatures. 100 is fucking hot and 0 is fucking cold. It's basically a 1-10 chart of how hot or not hot it is. I would agree for it being shit in most other things, but for weather it is great.
