Umm, yes, it is. Zero and a hundred, and convention is to break up temperatures like "it's in the forties". It's all base 10.
Is it going to be 27C all day long? Is it going to be between 80 and 90 all day long? One is more likely than the other, and even if it's 78 in the morning, that's fine, doesn't make much difference.
Here, C is overly precise for the task.
Because 130, a number with a zero at the end of it, is easier to deal with than 54.4.
This has an effect on UI, as well. Two buttons for going up or down. With F, you can do that in 1 or 0.5 degree increments. In C, it'd have to be 0.1, and you're pressing it more to get to where you want.
Which will be wrong. Steak turns out differently with slight changes in temperature around this level. European recipes will have to go to 54.4C.
No, it's using sous vide properly. Precision is why you do it.
