I like this update, it is more clean and user friendly. It is also still friendly to previous twitter users as well.

I'm also willing to admit that this is probably a case in which whatever system you grew up with, that's what you will prefer and no argument will sway your opinion in the other direction. (Although the metric system does have clear advantages)

After moving to Europe I am completely on board with the simplicity of the metric system, however I do prefer the Fahrenheit scale for exactly the reason you described above.
A human will face winter weather conditions from 0-32F which converts to negative values on the Celsius scale (not practical).
On the other end of the spectrum for summer time conditions, there is a wider range of values to ascribe to changes in temperature from 60F-100F or approx 16-38C.
