I never need the granularity of even 1°C for judging the weather, much less anything smaller. In practice, Fahrenheit units are usually used in an increment of 5°F and 10°F - a clear sign of a unit that's not been sized right.
Granularity is just a mather of how many decimal points you use.
My home thermometer have .1°C granularity (but probably not accuracy), but i have used thermometers for other applications with .001°C granularity.
It's like the meter, not so accurate, if you should only use full meters, to for example describe how tall someone is, most adults should be 2m i am acctualy 1.83m = 18.3dm = 183cm = 1830mm = 1,830,000
μm
1 meter = 10 decimeter = 100 centimeter = 1,000 millimeters = 1,000,000 micrometers = 1,000,000,000 nanometers, and so on.
And it goes the other way too, 1 kilometer = 1,000 meter. kilo=1,000, mega=1,000,000, giga=1,000,000,000, terra=1,000,000,000,000
So, the earts cicumferance of ~40,000,000m can be written as 40,000 km (kilometer), or as 40 Mm (megameter).
And if we talk weights, my weight is about 100,000 g (gram), but it would be inconvienient to write or say, so instead i write (say) 100 kg (kilogram).
And everything is connected, but sometimes the base units is of, but not by some arbitrary number, always in steps of ten. i litre for example, is the volume of a cube with the side of 0.1m and a litle of fresh water have the mass of 1kg (at a temperatore of 277.15K)
