Agreed, to a point… There’s cold and cold. Anything under 5F becomes extremely chilly the second it winds a little, IMHO. The upside with cold is you can usually put more layers if you’re still cold. With heat, at some point, you’re half naked and still sweating balls…
For me there are blocks of cold. Start to need the winter coat < 30F. Need to start adding more layers <15F. Its starting to get noticeably colder every few degrees <10F. Can't comment to much on colder than 0F as I've only experienced it a few times.
10F/-13C is a relatively comfy winter day up here haha! IMHO the biggest factor with how cold it feels is wind chill. -13F/-25C without wind is much more tolerable than 5F/-15C with wind bringing the feels-like temps to the former.
