The celcius was designed without regard to the temperature of absolute zero. Why does the exact value of absolute zero only have 2 decimal points in the celcius scale?

Question

Isn’t it quite a big coincidence that this value would only have 2 decimal points on a scale that puts the temperature value of water boiling and freezing at whole numbers?

Answer 1

The guy who came up with Kelvin which starts 0° at absolute zero was using Celsius for all his measurements because that’s what scientists do. So his new way of measuring temperature was Celsius that started zero at the coldest possible temp instead of starting zero at when water freezes
