You might be able to convince me H/C 0 is worthwhile, but H2? Never. That's just stupid. Temperature is one of those scales that you always max in one direction or the other.
if your nation has temperature preferences than I'll agree 100%. however in this case it doesn't, so taking an extreme temperature is a huge blow to your income, almost completely destroys what you gain from Order3 to begin with... I agree that Heat/Cold2 is dumb, if you go with 2 might as well go with 3, but going with 1(instead of 0) is sensible. I'd also agree that nations with only +1 preference(say Jotunheim, EA Mictlan, etc) should take it all the way to gain points, but with no preference at all, you get 40 DP almost for free, but taking max is hindering you too much.
1pt is like 2pts, its 5% income lost per pt. The third point is cheap.

Now, i did say i could be convinced of H/C0, but H1 seems like a bad plan for the same reason as H2 is.

Anyway, if I was playing Yomi, i'd probably aim for the following scales: O3S3H3L3Mg1. I might consider Mg3 and death scales.
