That wasn't the point though... -40 to 80 is the APPROXIMATE range a person would want to describe in terms of "oh it's twice as hot/cold as yesterday", which is the whole point of the exercise, not to determine at what temperatures humans use protection against the weather, because guess fucking what, we protect our bodies even in optimal temperatures and weather conditions! Or do you walk around fully naked when the weather's just right?
