Hot take: F is the superior temperature measurement for real people. If you are a scientist in a lab, sure, maybe referencing the state changes in water is useful for you somehow.
But for a normal person, 90% of the use of tempertature measurements is knowing what clothes to wear, and the other 10% is for setting oven temperatures. Oven temperatures are far hotter than waters boiling point, so F and C are equialvalently useful.
For knowing how to dress, however, F clearly has the advantage, as the numbers map to obvious temperature ranges. Ie,

100F = really fuckin hot
0F = really fuckin cold
0C = water freezes, 100C = water boils
If this isn’t more useful, tell me.
