Super confused, you bundle up at 68f for normal ideal summer temps? Or is 68-86 Gigantic enough you need long sleeves? Or like just low keyed afraid are you of the outdoors at 20c? Spoiler alert... It's nice?

68f is for sure t-shirt weather.

68 is not t-shirt weather for a lot of people.

What is this about "bundling up"? Literally no one said anything about bundling up. But 68 and 86 are just fundamentally different temperature categories.

68 means you may or may not need a jacket, depending on the wind, fog, etc. It also means you should probably carry a jacket because it's likely to drop down below "t-shirt" weather when the sun goes down. 86 means you'll likely not need a jacket at all, even at night. And it means the wind will be refreshing rather than biting. And it might mean shorts as well.

Like, I just don't believe that you can't understand how 68 and 86 are fundamentally different temperature categories

68 is shorts and T-shirt weather in my part of the world. No one carries a jacket around if it's that warm. Maybe it's cold to you if you live between the tropics? I can't speak to that

20-30c is a cool shortcut that F doesn't really have. The original comment says it's just a decent guideline and "I just don't believe that you can't understand" what a guideline is. But if you need all this stuff to exist outside in nice weather maybe a quick guideline is not for you...
