PS. An important point about modern room thermostats. 98% of easily
available ones have a tiny heater to reduce hysteresis and need a mains

Bi-metal sensor based room thermostats have a heater and require a
neutral. Many modern ones use a thermistor as the temperature sensor
and don't have a heater but do need a power supply... However that
might be a battery even for a wired stat as the to be a "plugin
replacement" for a bi-metal stat it has to cope with not having a
permenant live.
I'm not 100% sure what wiring the OP has, there is mention of two
wire and two wire plus L and N.
