      Acclimatization is a whole thing. I remember thinking 65F / 18C was cold once upon a time, then I moved north and now only bother putting on a jacket if it’s below 40F / 5C or so (but now I start seriously suffering above 85F / 30 C where that used to be my ideal temp).

      People who pretend certain temps are objectively not that cold or hot have never moved from one climate to another, I think. The person you replied to must be from a hot area.

      It really depends on what your body is acclimated to. When I lived in Texas it felt a little too cool to be t-shirt weather. Now that I’ve been living in Seattle for years, it’s safely within the realm of t-shirt weather.
