> On hotter nights people get less sleep, this being especially the case for people who are poor (limited access to AC?)

As someone who’s fought multiple property management companies over dead AC’s I can confirm: it is difficult to sleep when you’re seeping into your own puddle of sweat. And there’s no real way to properly cool a space this humid I’ve ever heard of.

And if it’s too humid to cool off with sweat, you just die

This might become a reality for people in india at the moment... :(

This is good to keep in mind although should you ever find yourself in such a situation know that you can still put your feet in a bucket of water. We usually get water from rivers our underground reservoirs so it tends to be cool enough even during heatwaves. It’s perhaps not the most convenient way to cool down but beats death.
