Places where governor's fove warnings that going outside could kill you in minutes without extreme weather gear. This is in the contiguous US.

Was in Minnesota when it was -53°F before the wind chill (lowest on record was in 1996 at -60°F) and you claim it is delusional to want to move to Florida for the weather? Why do you make that claim, is it because it gets a kinda hot and muggy for a few months and is amazing the bulk of the year?
Because extreme heat is not the solution to extreme cold.

Moderation in all things, something some folks have trouble comprehending.

If you live in Minnesota and can't handle sub-zero temps on a regular basis, try maybe - oh - Colorado. Or Illinois. Northern Kentucky. Southern Wyoming.

It's delusional to think that 90-100+ degree days with over 70% humidity for two or three MONTHS out of the year, will be any more bearable than -20 to 10 degree days with 4% humidity for a month or two out of the year.
