    Running continuously with two people in the house and all doors and windows shut is still a completely different task than dozens of people, equipment that produces a shit ton of heat and doors constantly open because people come and go all the time.

        Yeah this is what I was going to say, the AC doesn’t care what the temperature in the house actually is beyond when the thermostat tells it to turn on or off. Running continuously to maintain room temperature on a 100°F day will be the same to the unit whether the actual interior temp is 78° or 98°
