Isn't the problem that "comfortable temperature" is personal and circumstantial?

  Sure, but then you should still try to set you current (estimated) comfortable temperature as the target. If it's 23°C and you feel warm, you should set it to 20°C for example and not do 0°C just to get the heating to turn off.

  Set it few degrees lower than average preference. Put on socks or hoodie when cold, take them off when hot. Instant regulation, efficient energy usage.

  Generally the problem in this situation is that the person wants a different temperature now, and they think that setting a higher number will make it get there faster.

    It can make it get there faster depending on how many stages of heating/cooling you have. Problem we have at work is people that are cold temporarily adjusting the heating setpoint too high (above the cooling setpoint), now when it goes back to normal operation after the override expires, the temp of the space is above the cooling setpoint, so the cooling turns on. And now people are wondering why it's in cooling in the winter. But I agree that's not the desired operation.

      Perhaps we humans are not seeking corporeal warmth but spiritual warmth through a dialogue with the machine.
