I understand your position, and if AC was only installed on such work vehicles in such climates I would agree. It is still a nice to have, but could make folks more productive, and yes I have had hot gritty jobs. It just isn't safety equipment any more than not having a cell phone is safety equipment.
But AC is everywhere, there are folks with their windows up, all the time, mixing heat with their AC when it is absolutely beautiful outside. For the vast majority of its use that I have observed it is optional/comfort/luxury/pure waste mode.
It isn't personal. There is no shortage of forums where people feel entitled to do what they want whenever they want, so hopefully you can be tolerant of a venue that challenges folks to think things through and not internalize my comments about AC usage.
