@evan I went down a rabbit hole recently, trying to determine the ideal temperature of our home. It turns out that "thermal comfort" is a whole extensive field of research, and there are multiple standards defined for it.

Spoiler (or not): there is no ideal temperature that suits everyone! Instead there are ways to calculate (estimate) the percentage of people who would report as being comfortable/uncomfortable given certain parameters (temp, humidity, air speed, etc.).
