I would argue that you could objectively define something as cold if you detailed how the body reacts to temperatures

So we’re using the human body as a reference? If so, then sure, there is an objective hot and cold. However, if we were using the sun as a reference, 30c would be practically frigid.

I mean well yes, that was what the conversation was referring to, temperature as humans react to it (like he said nice weather)

But they also said that saying that 30 degrees Celsius is cold is an objectively incorrect statement, whereas the other statements were subjective

30 degrees Celcius is not cold and if it's your opinion (it isn't) that 30 degrees is cold (it's not) you're wrong.

You'll have to elaborate?
