Sure, it's a simple unit conversion, but it's a rough figure. When I say it's 70 degrees, I'm not saying that it's 70.000 degrees.
What I'm really saying is that it's about 70 degrees, so the true temp could be between 69.6 and 70.4 degrees (I don't know, I'm not looking at the thermometer that closely).
69.60 F = 20.89 C 70.40 F = 21.33 C
Turning my "70F" into "exactly 21.11111C" is just silly.
Did no one else learn about significant figures in grade school?!
