I don't see how intent is relevant, to someone using Celsius, 40 degrees is hot because they're used to that, that's the only thing that matters. Besides, when it comes to body temperature, Celsius is a lot closer than Fahrenheit. Not to mention "it's freezing outside" in Celsius is actually sub zero, and not a number close to your body temperature as it is in Fahrenheit.
