A 3°C world has no safe place

Try to sit in a bath of 36°C. You can sit there for hours. Now switch to a bath of 38°C. After a while you'll be sweaty, sluggish, tired, breath harder etc.

They have this at the St. Gellert baths in Budapest:

People live in extremely hot weather. And air conditioning is a thing. A few degrees in temperature change is quite manageable.

(And btw, not everyone lives in 36°C. Try to get those who live in a 20°C weather to care about a 2°C change even without air conditioning.)

That's not a good analogy. Water transfers heat 24 times as fast as air.
