> It's almost too stupid for me to believe this is genuinely a claim made in France. I agree with you, but at the same time I recall my last trip to NY 20 years ago. It was end of summer, so kinda hot, and many times I walked into buildings that would shower you at the entrance with <16C AC air, it literally felt like stepping into a freezer room. I felt cold in many shops after a 10m stay, and I like cold. I'm not sure that's still the case, but I can see where that's coming from (and don't get me wrong, I need AC to survive when temps are above 27C). Removing humidity and bringing temps down in the 21~24C range would be plenty enough.
