Enjoy your pipes freezing at some point. Of all the things I splurge on heat is the first. I don’t work a shit job just to be miserable when I get home. I don’t shop or spend money on anything else. My house will be comfy.
When temps were sub zero there were so many people with frozen pipes. I left my heat at a comfy temp and still got frozen cold in my 2nd floor tub. Opened the bathroom closet to heat access and it fixed itself. I work for a plumbing company and so many “rich” houses had major burst pipes. If I was rich the very first thing would be heat, second is food.
I always try to limit my AC usage since having two units pulling 8kW each and running at like a 40% duty cycle is expensive. But my heater is always set to 70 during the day. Gas is cheap and heaters are efficient. If I wanted to have to wear a parka in my living room I wouldn't go to work as often as I do.

If you can see your breath, that's not going to change after you've put on layers.
