Interesting read here - and after some thought I do have to admit I do pay attention to the outside temp in one regard. In the winter we do have a rule that if it is below freezing outside at bedtime, we have a fire burning when we retire. Naturally there is the exception for those weird "temp rising all night" thaw conditions, but that is the general rule of thumb here. That grew out of the experience of waking up a bit too cold a few too many times.
Now I do wonder if once we have the PH and the ability to warm the place faster (greater heat output) if perhaps we will revise that rule of thumb or not...
