Nissan Motor Co. said it has developed a new type of paint that significantly reduces the temperature inside vehicles parked in direct sunlight.

The surface of a car coated with the innovative material remains up to 12 degrees cooler than that of a vehicle with standard paint, tests showed.

The company said the coating material can help rein in the temperature rise not only on the car's body but also in the vehicle when exposed to direct sunlight.

Again, you're quibbling about the letter C for the sake of clarity

No, that's what you are doing. lol I'm telling you that the letter is irrelevant for the majority of people in the world because we all already assuming the correct units of temperature and you seem to take an issue with that fact.

Me: "We should be clear and add a C, so we know for sure what units we're dealing with and don't make assumptions."

You: "No, that's American-centrism! We don't need to include them! Most of the world already knows what they mean!"

Yeah, that's totally what's been said. At least you already wear your clown badge proudly.
