Slightly off-topic, but looking at the temperature section in your second link reminded me of the latest video from Linus Tech Tips[1] where he gets bashed for using the expression "degrees Kelvin". Personally, I don't see the problem. Since a kelvin is a hundredth of the difference between boiling and freezing temperatures of water, there is a notion of scale so the term "degrees" makes sense.

Battles over being "technically correct" are the most fierce, because the stakes are so low.
Yes, in the same way that a half-marathon is 13 degrees mile long.
The half-marathon is a race that commemorates the Greek soldier who ran halfway from Marathon to Athens after the Battle of Marathon.
