I understand. I was going with Alicorn's description - and normal body temperature incidentally 'feels' a whole lot worse to me.
We're just talking about instinctive subjective reactions here but I note that one of the appealing things to me about your specific proposed explanation was that it didn't talk about temperature or bodies at all:
That sounds good to me. And to Alicorn it translated into imagery of room temperature and sleeping. The same translation that feels 'inviting' to Alicorn feels revolting to me. Perhaps your (Ata's) instincts are also somewhat different to mine in as much as 'normal body temperature' feels better than 'room temperature'.
