Less tongue in cheek, yes, people will often chill their tap water in the summer before drinking. But it's perfectly drinkable at whatever temperature it comes out of the tap. The water supply in my locality comes from a surface reservoir, leading to the higher summer temperatures.
There is no “cold” tap, just warm and hot taps.
A very verbose way of saying Singapore.
But I have friends who rinse their mouth, brush with tap water in Vietnam and haven't gotten sick. It obviously varies a lot by which city (or even within the city), but the water is tested and obviously highly chlorinated (by smell).
I mean, I wouldn't drink it regularly because I don't think they look for non-biologic toxins like metals.
It's prepared at 100C, and _may_ be served at 100C, but it does not enter your body at 100C or you will burn your mouth.

It may be drinkable, but temperatures above 25C will be a cesspit for legionella.
Also you’ll notice no water towers.
And it’s Tucson… not Tuscon.
Not as part of the “to tap” process.

Not relevant. CAP boosts elevation many times. A water tower is needed if you don’t have a high pressure water source like the CAP canals and the salt river reservoirs.

If you can't even get the spelling of a major city in Arizona correct, your content is... as the kids like to say, "sus".
Having such superficial interactions with the world is congruent with believing the meme that all of Arizona drinks well water though.
I hope you do take some time some day to learn about the state you grew up in. The water projects are quite impressive engineering because there is no other option. The rural holdouts that pumped their groundwater dry learned that lesson the hard way.
They tried "to the tap" and it pissed everyone off because the river water leeched out all of the rust in people's pipes.
I don't know how many gallons I would have to waste to get the tap to start delivering water at 50°F. I could run the faucet for several minutes and still get water that was body temperature or warmer.
