75F would already be a warm room for many. 70F or 21C is usually room temperature around here. In the past this was often 65F. In more southern places 75F is middle of the night temperature and too cold.
I can see how the F scale makes some sense, but then you see some news report from Texas reaching 100F and you wonder if people can read their own temperature scale as that is clearly not fit for human habitation.
There are the “I like to keep my house at 66°F because I like to wear a hoodie or use a blanket”. They are going to say that 75°F is warm or even hot for a room.
If an average person sat naked in a 75°F room they would be happy.
68°F or 20°C is cold for me. Even 70°F or 21°C. I keep my house around 72° to 74°F and bump it up or down a degree. Coming in from mowing the yard, bump it down, sitting all day watching movies, keep it the same, cold winter day, bump it up.
Older people keep their houses at 78°+
100°F doesn’t mean “not fit for human habitation”
Anything above body temperature of 98.6°F (37°C) you are slowly cooking yourself. That’s why 100°F is important.
