But surely Americans use temperature for cooking too and not just for weather, and then 100°C is boiling which is also at least somewhat useful to know.
When cooking I have never needed to know what temperature boiling water is. The fact that it's boiling is enough. Never mind that water only boils at 100°C at sea level and most Americans don't live at sea level.

I guess prioritizing cooking or weather is what it, er, boils down to. ;)
If folks want a single temperature scale that works in a fry pan, around Moscow and on Proxima Centauri, there's always Kelvin ...
