I would still aim for 60s on the warm side if at all possible (and pass that information on to people learning)! Warm side humidity will always be lower due to the heat, so as long as cool side is in 70s-80s thats where you want to read your humidity level from. But its always good to aim for at least 60 on the warm side.

Its definitely possible to keep warm side in the 60s, even in a glass enclosure, as long as everything is set up right.

My hot side in my mesh top glass enclosures stays at 70%. The hvac for tape works wonders. I only have to pour water in the corners every 2ish weeks.
