Does anyone else feel like a human popsicle after embracing the cold room protocol?

I have officially reached the point of no return with sleep optimization. After reading through a dozen studies on thermoregulation, I decided to keep my bedroom at exactly 62 degrees Fahrenheit every night. My partner thinks I have completely lost my mind, and honestly, I am starting to wonder myself. I have invested in a high-end chili pad, blackout curtains, and enough wool socks to stock a small store. While my deep sleep scores on my wearable tracker have undeniably spiked, I wake up feeling like an icicle every single morning. Is the marginal increase in recovery metrics worth the trade-off of feeling like I am hibernating in a meat locker? I am curious if any of you have found a more balanced way to manage temperature without turning your bedroom into an arctic research station. Does anyone else struggle with this, or am I just over-indexing on these performance data points at the expense of actual comfort?
