Um, yes? What planet are you from where it isn't?
At 74°F, your average HVAC system will have to run 12+ hours a day in peak summer, when it's 110°+ outside. This is how you get a $400/mo power bill. 76-78° is more reasonable (and more comfortable). This is coming from someone who hates the heat because I sweat a lot.
I'm from the planet where it gets 65°F in May. And 85 in July.
Then why even have air conditioning? I would never turn it on with those temps.
Leave your windows open all night, close them in the morning when you wake up. The residual coolness will keep your house a comfortable temperature all day long. That's what I do in the spring before the temps hit 100+.
