The universe is mostly empty space with an average temperature of like… 4 Kelvin or some shit. Why not use a system that reflects that? Oh, we do? Right. Celsius is Kelvin + 273.15.
I don’t know why “techtarget” would be a credible source on Physics questions, but the SI convention, which is, according to Wikipedia, the “only system of measurement with an official status in nearly every country in the world, employed in science, technology, industry, and everyday commerce”, poses that “kelvin is never referred to nor written as a degree.”
But I also made the mistake to write it as “Kelvin” instead of “kelvin”.
Fahrenheit has a fine granularity that is lost in cold climates. It’s why the Bahamas/Belize use it as well.
Well you know that you can use the decimals?
How is - 40.000001°F more fine than - 40.00000000001°C?
23°C is a nice room temperature.
18°C is a bit chilly but still a comfortable temperature.
If you want to go for a finer destinction then we cann say 18.5°C is warmer but I personally can’t feel the difference.
Our bodies are mostly water why not use a system that reflects this?

…rankine glowers in your general direction…
Are you made of mostly empty space? Your response does leave me questioning. Please aknowledge that you are made of 64% water and not 4°k nothing.
As a matter of fact…
Plese do not use Kelvin with a degree symbol. There ist no “degree Kelvin”.
Please make sure you are right before you correct someone https://www.techtarget.com/whatis/definition/kelvin-K
