I realize that there is a new advanced(?) plotting function in Prime but some of us are constrained to Express.

 

In Prime 6 Express, define TT as a range variable for plotting 120 deg F,119 deg F . . 103 deg F.

Plot TT vs TT.  get

Plot function against TT, get:

Strange effects we sure may call a bug.

As we know, temperature units can be a beast. In case of your plots, the problem seems not to be where the red error is but its the abscissa - there is only base unit K allowed.

 

BTW, you won't have these problems with the new "advanced" (nice joke) plot component as it doesn't support units at all.

You are correct, I won't have this problem with the new plotting component:

Well, maybe for 30 days once in a while!  But, as Luc has shown there are ways:

It seems to work in 4.0, but not 5.0 or 6.0.

 

Also, is this happening because F is actually a function, and not a unit?
