If you've ever been in an empty house that hasn't been moved into yet you might've noticed it -- a big empty room with nothing in it is likely to either be freezing or roasting When the sunlight comes in it the air heats up right away and when it goes down the heat all leaves

And part of what the furniture and stuff does is soak up the heat so it doesn't get hot so quickly, and then at night slowly release that heat to slow the temperature drop It's a "buffer"

That's one reason stone stuff has gotten so trendy -- marble and granite and whatnot everywhere It's not *just* wealth signaling, because stone is expensive and having people move it around is also expensive

The thing that makes stone so annoying -- that it is both bulky and heavy, it's a large amount of dense material and therefore very massive -- is what makes it objectively good for thermal regulation and can't be removed without removing that quality
