    Oh believe me, I grew up in a tropical country and 26C was the lowest I set my AC to, and that was for sleeping. People in places like the US just have a different perspective. I sometimes see comments saying they keep it at 70F during the day and 65F at night to sleep comfortably. I already feel uncomfortably cold at 72F.
