I think it’s a little more nuanced. If it wasn’t a problem for you then I see no reason to question your intelligence, if it was a big problem and you didn’t see the obvious solution, then I’d be willing to agree with your reasons

Yup, I wash my hands with cold water because waiting for the water to heat up takes as much time as actually washing my hands. I can handle 10-20s or whatever of cold water, but waiting 10s just feels wasteful for a quick hand wash.

Right, I was going to add exactly this. Who has the patience to wait for hot water

Counter point, most of us don't live in buildings so poorly built that our water takes more than 1-2 seconds to come out hot...
