Memory runs at -68.5°C ?

You have water at -68.5 C? Most of us call that ice. So I am pretty sure you know what I mean and you’re flirting with the HN rules.
You can't halve the temperature of something by halving its measument in Celcius, because the celcius starts at some arbitary point above absolute zero.

50 degrees celcius is 86% as hot as the boiling point of water, not 50%.

You both did the math in kelvin then converted to C. You knew what you were doing.
Needless pedanticism.
