Sure the thermometer is the one place I remember decimals, but I can guarantee you no one I've ever met in my life knows the difference between 25 and 26 degrees celsius, much less decimals of it.

Specially air conditioners, they all have arrows to go up and down the temperature, you're literally just speaking from a very specific experience of one special air conditioner that had more control than most others.
