It's not about learning or not. It's about 1 system being fundamentally less suited for the task. You wouldn't argue that we should all be using kelvin. I mean, you could argue that, but you wouldn't be right.
Yes Celsius certainly seems more natural.
Not for human centered climate, where 0-100F is a very convenient set of human centric temperatures. 0 is really cold, 100 is really hot
You just described Celsius, you idiot.
You are talking purely out of ignorance. The majority of the population on Earth are getting on just fine using celsius with none of the problems you claim to exist.
Also "really cold" and "really hot" are purely subjective terms which varies a lot from person to person and from location to location.
