Maybe you shouldread the whole paragraph next tim before jumping to
conclusions?

How would you know what makes a plant "happy" anyway?

Just tell the wife to leave the Aloe plant alone.

Wishful thinking on your part, Jim Bob.

Did you completely miss the sentence saying: "A north or east-facing
window
will never do."?

Preceded by "A few succulents such as Aloe, their relatives, . . . . .
can do well in low light. . . ."

I said they can handle less intense light not a north facing window.
That's
not the same thing. Day length is important too.

My Aloe Vera has wintered on a north window for 10 years. [zone 5- in
a valley- mighty short days in January] It wasn't happy when it
was on the south window with the Violets- but that might be because my
wife watered it too much there.
