    I mean, you could just convert the Farenheit or Celsius degrees to radians like they were angle degrees. “Bake at 6.109 radians for 45 minutes” still can mean “Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes” if you accept the implicit Farenheit scale. Radians would still be ambiguous regarding the base scale used, but it’s as ambiguous as “degrees” is so not really an issue.

    So I mean, there’s no real reason to do it but also no reason you can’t.

      You have to specify radians fahrenheit for that so we don’t confuse it with radians Celsius and blacken the thing.

      Except temperature degrees aren’t related angle degrees. You’d be using a pun as a unit conversion.

        Oh they’re unrelated, and it’s a pointless conversion I know.

        Technically speaking these would be unrelated radians under the same name measuring different units. But you could still do it if you really wanted
