Zero Kelvin is still a different league of special scientifically speaking.

It's special in our human world, but not in thermodynamics / physics. Water is just a molecule like all the others, it's not special.

Whereas 0K is the absolute minimum temperature, so that's a really special value!

I'd say water freezing is still interesting thermodynamics/physics :). (But I agree 0K is another kind of mark)

I see where your coming from here, and by all means 0 °C is more significant than say 0 °F. But water freezing at 0 °C is far less "special" than everything freezing at 0 K

Sheesh, people... is the downvote really necessary ?
