I live in Ontario, about 100 miles north of the border. If it gets much below 30 (F), I’ll think about wearing socks with my sandals, and even put on a light coat if I’m going outside for more than 15 minutes. If one concedes too much at such mild temperatures, one isn’t going to be comfortable at -40, by which time one does need a decent coat and at least one extra layer.

Wait until you get older. You will dress differently than you describe.

At least, at -40 you don't have to worry about °F vs °C.

And by the time you get to -50°C, you are at that odd number cited in the article, -58°F.
