Unfortunately, the people were neither given nor asked for the "sufficient" temperature. While I don't appeciate that climate measures are forced on the poor only, there's many people that waste a lot of energy on heating in the winter. I don't think 22°C+ should be the norm. If you put on some warm clothes, 18°C are absolutely fine. Personally, I like colder temps indoor and I go for 16°C in the winter as long as there's no mold issues.
For just sitting around 18 or 16°C is way too cold.
Even in warm clothing.
I'm perfectly fine sitting at my desk all day with 18°C in shorts and hoodie.
