When you're cold, you can always put more clothing on.

When you're hot, you can only take so much clothing off.

technically there is an upper limit to how much clothing one can put on, even if that is the mass of the universe.

You'd collapse into a star well before that. And even before that, you'd be burnt up by molten sweaters. Though it's not as bad as it sounds because you'd be crushed long before the heat got too much to stay solid.

i understand that, but personally, unles we are talking about >100F and >90% humidity, i don't need more than a small fan and cool water to feel fine

Especially if you live in a hot, and HUMID environment. Sweat doesn't cool you if it can't evaporate due to high humidity. You just turn into a sweaty hot mess and overheat.

Humidity is a killer, hot or cold. -5 c can feel worst than -20 c
