Before you start judging people, it's best to keep in mind that humans are very bad at judging anything, even with direct and seemingly infallible evidence.
Take temperature, for example. We all have different ideas about comfortable temperatures and different tolerances to heat and cold. Married couples often fight over the thermostat setting. In the winter, the heat set at 65 warms us up, while in summer, the AC set at 70 cools us off.
There's even a wind chill factor, because moisture in the air and the speed of the wind fools is into thinking it's colder than it is. The heat of the water in the shower is relative to our body temperature, and our own thermal regulating system is subject to wild swings based on slight temperature fluctuations.
The point is, temperature, like all things, is relative. So if you can't even form an accurate and consensus opinion with yourself on what feels hot and cold, what chance do you think you have on judging something as complex and with so many unknown variables as someone else's lifestyle and choices?
