    My scale for expressing mean kinetic energy flux is superior to your scale for expressing mean kinetic energy flux. I have formed an identity around this and will smugly argue about it on the internet.

      Hey now, I don’t argue for Celsius, I just argue against people saying Fahrenheit is better for silly reasons.

    Joule is the best unit you can literally apply it to everything because it’s essentially a raw unit of energy.

      Joules is unfortunately a vector because it’s over a distance in a direction. Temperature is a scalar. Sometimes scalars are better than vectors.

      Edit:Ok for those who don’t actually understand joules in its units J=KG•M2/s2 or N•D, it’s force which is a vector over a distance, this requires a magnitude and direction. This is because force is a vector and Joules is using force. All of you are starting to be confidently incorrect… Joules is a vector you can search it up.

        What? Joule is an energy unit and energy is a scalar quantity and not a vector. There is no “energy direction” and no “distance”.

        Edit: even your edit doesn’t make sense. Provide a source that says that energy or joule is somehow a vector.
