>socially meaningful geographic boundary

For you ... and maybe a minor percentage of the US, which, btw, makes up only 4% of the total world population.

>again socially meaningful

As I commented elsewhere, nature doesn't care when you start counting days.

And so? Countries that use Celsius are warmer? Colder?

>the issue of "110f in Phoenix" has been newsworthy previously

Do you live in Phoenix? This is the first I've ever come across such piece of news. Ever.

Yes truly strange to find a discussion about the American city of Phoenix here on this website given that the US “only” has 4% of the world’s population.
