Wonder what is the % cost of the house being more comfortable, if it indeed is? If convenience has a cost premium or it is actually getting cheaper over time in real terms, we just perceive the inflation?

There are two ways to build any construction today: - either on high time preference - built it fast and cheap and don' think about durability - less than 20 years - glorified trailers, tiny homes etc. - either on low time preference - built it out slow, the best materials, highest durability - lasts centuries - like Florence, NY etc. The fork is the time preference and the placemaking. Do you invest (extra) long term in a location you want to thrive in 50+ years too?
