yes a walmart thermometer like you showed is not a scientific instrument
do you really belive people are stupid enough to belive scientist use household items to measure ? like they use a potato scale to measure force ?take a cup to measure volumes of microliters ?
They didn't have anything else in the 1880s. Think
They had a mercury thermometer...and the US government didn't even start calibrating them till 1901
So how can you say mercury thermometers were accurate between 1880~1901 in the United states?
