79F/26C is a pretty reasonable day-time temperature...

Depends on the person and what they were acclimated to as the norm in an area. I start to get increasingly disfunctional starting at about 75f, once it gets to 80f it is difficult for me to focus on tasks that aren't directly related to cooling myself down, and 85f+ my day is a wash

You gotta condition yourself to it. Don't start at 80F, but work your way up to it over spring.

I've spent years trying to figure out how to acclimate it never works, I really wish it would I just don't think I'm built like that. My solution has been to move to colder places which is having mixed results with the planet heating faster than I can move

Are you a hairy person, by any chance? I am, and trimming my body hair added like 8F to my heat tolerance.

Body hair, I have effectively none barely even leg hair. My head hair does grow in very thick though and this season I'm experimenting with shaved sides see how much it helps
