No doubt, ambient temperature can make a difference, especially in baking. I’m glad you brought up that point. But I guess what I’m saying is that it is not a direct 1:1 comparison. If it’s 5° warmer in your house and you have to add 5° to the final cooking temperature, that would be a direct correlation but if you’re saying it’s 5° hotter in your house therefore you need to bake something for x% longer, the scale at which you measured your home temperature is immaterial.

that's true, for that purpose it's not relevant, i put the oven on the desired target temperature and it will heat up to that point, independently of the ambiant temperature
