Temperatures are ideal, warm to hot but not too hot, but there is far too little rain and I'm not a big fan of the summer being the drier season in a climate this warm. I give it a B-. With more rain it could be an A+.
D, mostly for lack of variety. I'd probably give any place with this little variety a D or F. Summers aren't unbearably hot but it's consistently in the upper 80s, low 90s with high humidity. Spring and fall can be the same, or maybe a few degrees cooler. Winter is on average less than 10 degrees cooler so not much variety at all in terms of temperature. It's also rainier in winter but not excessively so, at least not in urban Honolulu.

Really depends whether you like all the components of the "variety" or not. If like me you don't and you see say summer as good and winter as bad in strongly seasonal climates, then variety isn't welcome, just like a poke in the eye on Wednesdays wouldn't be a welcome element of variety.

Well yes, that goes without saying pretty much. Still, how many people think 30 degrees and snowing is their ideal climate? Not many I'd guess. However, if that is mixed in with a variety of warm, dry summers it can be a welcome break for a lot of people. Now if you really cannot stand cold or snow you'd probably hate even one month of that weather. Just depends on the person. IMO a place like Winnipeg would also get a D. This despite a huge variation in weather throughout the year. Summers are fine, but -10 degrees is not something I'd want to experience even for a few days. That would be my "poke in the eye", as would anyplace with summers like Dubai, no matter how cold it got in winter.
