There's very little difference between e.g. +25°C and +26°C, not sure why you would need event more accuracy in day to day life. There are decimals if you require that for some reason.

Celsius works significantly better in cold climates for reasons mentioned in another comment.

If that’s the case why do the Celsius thermostats I used while on vacation in Canada use 0.5C increments? The decimals are used, because the change between 25C and 26C is actually pretty big :)

In my old apartment, the difference between 73F and 74F was enough to make me quite cold or hot. And that’s a difference of about 0.5C. I’m not arguing that Farenheit is better, but I definitely do prefer it for setting my thermostat (which is a day to day thing) , but then again I grew up using it so that could be why I prefer it too.

Probably because they were made for US and changed the labels? I've never seen a thermostat with 0.5 C increments in Europe.

I would maybe be able to tell you if it's 23 or 27, certainly I can't tell 1 C difference.
