If it would have been 5°C this could ave caused serious medical issues. it would have been freezing, some of them could have reached life threatening hypothermia.

If it would have been hailing they could have been knocked unconscious.

If there was a hurricane they could have been dashed against the concrete walls.

If there was a meteorite they could have been pulverised.

If they didn't have dicks they could have been women.

If they were 5 years old they would have been children.

If they had long necks and four legs they could have been giraffes.

the comment criticised that it was refered to as cold. I gave example as to why in this circumstance 16°C are to be considered cold.
