Actually, the hidden benefit here might be the data trail... it creates a neutral record that prevents 'he said, she said' arguments later on. You both can see the scheduled changes and who requested what, which removes subjectivity from the conflict. Over time, patterns emerge in the calendar, showing if one person is consistently compromising more... that visibility alone can encourage fairness. It's like turning a personal dispute into a manageable logistics problem, which strangely feels less personal. The method could probably extend to other shared household duties too, not just climate control.
