Why do you just assume 50% is the ideal?

[–] TheKingBombOmbKiller@lemm.ee 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

If 0 F is 0 % hot, and 100 F is 100 % hot; shouldn't 50 F be the Goldilocks ideal of neither too hot or too cold at 50 %?

And if 50 F isn't the Goldilocks ideal, then where on the scale is it?

That would depend on personal preference. Somewhere around the 70-80 mark most likely.

You're assuming humans have no preference for it being hot or cold. That's the only way 50% would make more sense. But most people prefer it warm
