Are my temperature control settings too small?

Have you ever met someone that uses something so sparingly that they may as well not even have it at all? My family says that’s me when it comes to Heating and A/C. I recognize they are exaggerating quite a bit. I merely set more conservative hot and cold temperatures on the temperature control in order to conserve energy. It’s not savor all of us are covered in sweat and uncomfortable in the summer. I mean, sure, with my settings there’s not exactly cold cold air blasting through the vents and keeping us super comfortable, however there’s enough cool air to be far better off than if all of us were outside. Similarly, in the Wintertide time, they complain about the heat being used too sparingly. I simply tell them to trade those shorts for some sweatpants and put some socks and slippers on. That plan works wonderful for me! Again, the cabin entirely is not cold, however I suppose it’s not genuinely hot and toasty either. My kids periodically joke (at least I hope they are joking), that I keep the temperature on the temperature control one degree higher or lower than what would be considered torture. I truthfully wonder what they are going to do when they have their own houses and their own Heating and A/C units to keep up after. Will they use their heating and cooling excessively, because they will finally have the opportunity to do so? How long will that last when they get the energy bill next month? My money is on them deciding that they would love to save a buck instead of setting excessive hot and cold temperatures. I could be wrong though!
