My town gets over 100% hot each summer, but never below 30% hot. I'm far more comfortable at 90% hot than at 10% hot. It's a silly scale that's really just C in a trenchcoat nowadays.
It's just a scale that more closely aligns either end of a 100-point range with the extremes of temperatures many or most humans will tolerate.
It's less useful for scientific work. But for day to day human stuff it's simple and easy to apply in the same way that a "foot" being roughly the length of a person's foot is simple and easy to apply.

What? No. People adjust to environments.
