homo (post-?) Sovieticus

even in deep winter, when the air of subway tunnels can be quite cold, it is rather common to see Russians sitting and/or standing in a cold air draft of a subway wagon open window (though there are also tableaux and announcements to keep them closed), and rarely does someone close one.
is this not due still to fear of standing out in a crowd?
