Overheard a baker say room temp water is a lie for instant yeast, tried it this morning

She said the package says 110-115F for a reason and my tap water was probably 68F, so I microwaved a cup for 20 seconds and the dough rose in 45 minutes instead of 2 hours. Has anyone else been skipping the thermometer and wondering why their loaves take forever?
