I choose...none of the above.
So which one between the three is the least offensive for you?

I really can't decide they're so bad. Usually in these kinda of climate battles, there's one hot desert option of one extremely continental but dry option but in this there's really no "preferable" choice for me.

Singapore could win due to a slightly lower number of precipitation days and having warm rain instead of cold rain but the temps are just too unpleasant year round. Kerguelen could win for having the best temps but there's just way too much unpleasant cold rain. Schefferville could win due to the most pleasant temps and having the least rain days, but it's winters are just too unpleasantly cold and long. It's really a toss up for me.

Kerguelen, because Singapore is too hot and Schefferville is too cold.

Schefferville based solely on climate

However, I would never want to live in Schefferville, because every summer it is plagued by mosquitos and biting flies.

This more or less sums up my opinions as well. I feel like I could also adapt to Singapore's heat and humidity after a while, since the weather is pretty much the same every day. But it would get boring.

I pick Singapore for being the least unpleasant climate year round

Singapore is a tropical paradise with excellent AC for dealing with the humidity. Perfect mix of high rainfall and high sunshine hours and lots of thunderstorms. Yes, it would be better with a cooler, comfortable season but beats the pants off of the other two by light years.

Singapore. I don’t like the fact that there’s no cooler winter but at least it’s suitable for humans to be able to walk about without being constantly cold. The other two have no proper summer and that’s a problem.

It's a no brainer for me. Singapore is quite close to ideal for me, just a bit on the hot side. The other two are much too cold. Any climate that is too harsh for tree growth because of lack of warmth, rain, too much wind etc gets an automatic F from me.
