Disagree totally.
What it feels like is a function of ambient temperature, wind levels and clothing.
Unless you specify “feels like when naked” or “feels like when wearing down and goretex” its completely and utterly meaningless.
It is a mathematically degenerate combination of temperature and wind, made using a hidden model (is not given to the reader), and likely a very different model to many readers.
I can almost accept it in the implied context of “feels like, when dressed in domestic/town clothing” but applied to the summit of a hill it’s a nonsense. On a nice day, you’ll see one person packing all the kit and another running in shorts and a t-shirt. It doesn’t feel anything alike to those two people.
