Nope, live in a modern-ish single family house in a northwestern state bordering Canada with a diy grid tied solar system plus smart thermostat that gives me plenty of metrics and have spent plenty of time in an off gird cabin.
Mostly what I’m getting from this conversation is that you think your experience must by extension be universal for everyone, everywhere, all the time, and of course that if you can’t refute the quick skim of an argument, statistic, or claim you just ignore it and all context in favor of a scenario where it might not apply and then pretend the conversation was actually about that specific scenario all along.
Given this conversation about a third party’s offhand comment has been going on for nearly a day and is far two deep in replies that Memmy won’t render them let’s just agree to disagree and save our time for IRL stuff or commenting on how unified major cooperations are in greenwashing destroying the planet or something.
Again, where are you getting the idea that the original commenter has to be talking about being set on a old, poorly insulated home?
That’s pretty much what most retrofits in the US look like.

What I’m mostly getting from this conversation is that you’ve never actually owned a single-family house, or paid to heat or cool one.
