“Kelvins” just feels wrong, but apparently is correct? (looking it up, seems like it’s right) It still feels the same as if you’d say “200 Fahrenheits” or “140 Celciuses”.
Celsius and Fahrenheit are both degrees units, meaning they’re scaled off of some arbitrary temperature. 20°C means 20 Celsius units away from Celsius 0.
Kelvin isn’t scaled. 0 Kelvin means there’s no temperature energy at all. So there’s no need to couch it in degrees, since it isn’t arbitrary but a defined scale with an absolute zero point.

1 degree, 2 degrees. 1 kelvin, 2 kelvins

I always assumed it was like Fish. No change in the plural.
No change necessary, but fishes is a perfectly acceptable and correct plural of fish, and so much more fun to say!
I’m a big fan of mooses. I think they’re large enough to deserve the extra letters.
I prefer “meese”, myself
Meesin?
