You do understand life is full, in fact, life is nothing but problems to solve. With that in mind, you want to go back to the conditions of the past, because you cannot figure out or are too lazy to install a lite fixture? I am not saying your any of the above but its something to make you think.
You see everywhere, people having success with the larger temperature range(do not eliminate what lower temps) and you wonder why you should copy that.
In the days of 90 degree temps and down, breeding monitors was unheard of.(extremely rare) To produce babies is only a sign that minimum conditions are met. Not maximum. Huge growth and massive amounts of offspring is a sign of great or maximum support.
With a larger range of temps, basic life events are commonplace(for those that apply it) Basic life events is a full circle, to hatch, to grow, to mature, to recruit(lay eggs and hatch) Thats a circle. There are tons of good stuff you can add to that circle, but if one of those steps are missing, there is no circle. No matter what else you add. You must include those steps.
So in other words, the circle of life is now commonplace to some, and getting near to others. Now a days, there is pattern breeding, morph breeding, cross breeding, etc. In those old days, there was no breeding of anykind. Heck, keeping them alive for over two years was rare. They died from all such things like Respitory disease, and mouth rot, Calcium defic. disease and fatty liver disease, and gout, and all manner of bacterial infections, kidney failure, the list is long. Funny, I can only speak for myself, but I have avoided that.
I mainly lose monitors from such things as getting their heads stuck in a crack or hole or hanging themselves. I am not figured out how to fix monitor stupidity. hahahahahahahahaha the dumb things are toooo curious and cannot seem to keep their heads out of the wrong hole. Oh, i lose females from reproductive complications, I am not smart enough, but I am getting better.
So other then that, theres no reason. Cheers(all in fun)
But those things like mouth rot, Respit disease, fatty liver, Calicum defic disease, and such, are gone.
