Celsius is much more useful than stipulated here. For example, it takes 1J (Joule) to heat 1g (which is also 1ml) of pure water 1 degree Celsius.
The metric system is all weighted and related from temperature to mass to distance. This is what makes it so useful for Science, and frankly, every day use.

Please provide an example where you need to convert between Joules, grams, and Celsius in "every day use"
Estimating how long it will take the kettle to boil :-)
One calorie, not one Joule. Water has a specific heat of ~4.2 kJ/kg.
