Having the freezing point of water be at 0 instead of 32 just makes infinitely more sense.
Only if you're measuring water temps. In general it makes more sense to put the zero of your scale at absolute zero
Water temperature is super important though, since most life on earth requires water in a liquid state to continue to function.
