i'd prefer the cold one. easier to get warm and retain heat. the earth gets warmer the deeper you get. you can wear layers

heat is eventually inescapable. sure you can go underground, but eventually every heat sink will fail.

and you can't take off your skin (yet)

That share a major river that Pakistan completely relies on and India controls the source of. It's probably one of the scariest potential flash points of conflict that almost never gets talked about, at least in the West.

Oh, a new terrifying thing I'd never been taught before, thank you for that nightmare fuel...

It doesn't mention the wet bulb temperature. If that temperature is just the temperature, you can still do things to cool (wet clothes, shade, airflow), but if the wet bulb is that hot, you're screwed because it's then too humid to use anything besides phase change cooling (proper air conditioning). Either way, that is still crazy hot and it's only going to get worse over time.
