That said, I think it is helpful to consider bag ratings along with a "personal offset". If a person knows that they sleep warm or sleep cold, it is still helpful to have an objective and reliable temp rating that they can judge and apply their personal offset to. Certainly WM excels at that.

Maybe you need a Nunatak or Feathered Freinds ...
