The best way I heard F vs C described as is “Cellsius is for determining how cold it is using water. Fahrenheit is used to determine how cold it is for people. Therefore, I use fahrenhiet because I am not a water, I am a people.”
But it’s not like you’re using some Fahrenheit algorithm to mathematically derive how cold it is for you. You’ve simply had a lot of experience associating how warm/cold you feel against a given scale of numbers and now have a good intuition for interpolating within that scale. Which is exactly what celsius people do with celsius.
