You’ve never been to the Southwest or the Gulf South, have you? There are parts of the US where you would die without AC. Seriously, like when you get a brownout on a hot summer day in New Orleans or Santa Fe or Dallas, people start dying. Mostly the elderly and kids.

GP is in UK, and specifically allowed for the difference between that situation and situations in USA. Nobody wants your grandma to die.

Also, the heat in Santa Fe is much different than that in New Orleans.
