Again, if you have an APU that can "shoot you to the moon" well then use it. And if you don't then you can't complain when people say they hate flying in your small aircraft.
Honestly the DOT should regulate maximum cabin temps. Or some kind of maximum temperature for the APU MEL. I have seen older people in seriously bad shape getting off of CRJ’s with no APU in the summer. Airlines will never do it on their own; at least regionals won’t.
