This one kind of makes sense at least. Ideally the power company should have planned ahead, of course. But allowing their thermostats to get to 88 - hot but still manageable - averted the far worse option of rolling blackouts.
Yeah, in this particular situation, this might be the lesser of two evils. But, the true solution would have been them actually knowing what they’re doing and having sufficient reserve capacity, like a utility is supposed to have for this exact reason.
