Any unit with a shifted zero needs to be handled carefully, only if added to the source code and marked as a special unit the system would understand it. Also, these type of units get associated with their corresponding delta units of change, so it's not that simple to present an interface for the user to add a custom temperature scale. And why would you need to invent a new temperature scale these days? I figured as much. And I don't "need" to for any practical purpose... I just sometimes like playing around with unit systems which, while superior to what we have now, nobody will ever actually adopt. (Yes, I'm weird. I even think we should switch to base 6 - which, given that the huge majority even of those who tilt at that particular windmill favor base 12, leaves me almost entirely alone in this world.) |
