That is not similar at all. 3°C is not a normal use condition, silicon normal working temperature is around 50°C (sustained by its own heating in normal condition) and there is probably a notice where the minimal temperature is stated in celcius. The OC is about assumption on user culture. Assuming that a macbook won’t be used in extreme condition is just normal engineering scoping. You aren’t chilling on the balcony in underwear, are you? Well of course not because your body, even raised in a cold climate, needs to keep itself at 37°C. Your macbook too need to keep warm, and it cannot use its muscle when the CPU is not heating enough. But, hey, maybe you just got a good business plan ! Design a macbook parka to sell to your fellow countrymen.
