An "ideal room temperature" has never been found, anywhere, in all of recorded history. There used to be an urban legend that somewhere in northern California, the cloud cover provided a day that hovered at exactly 71.3 degrees for over 3 hours and 99 percent of people were comfortable but there's no definitive proof.
At Cohere I tend to cater to the hottest person (me) and keep the AC set around 72. We have a little stash of blankets and hoodies for emergencies. The only reason this works is because our building is over 3 levels with 2 different thermostats so people can generally find a spot (even if it's outdoors) where they are most comfy. The bane of any HVAC unit's existence is closed doors and stairs. #physics.
