Too cold to notice at that point. Fortunately at work my bike sits in an 82f IT server closet.

yes

I think Koobi saddles with urethane elastomers would be more immune to the cold. I ride a couple Koobis, they feel just the same in the cold. (--it's tricky to observe them while riding, heh--)

When it's below zero most people have a few layers on and that adds extra padding to the seat anyway.

I suppose they could get very stiff, at least.

BUT, wouldn't one's hot butt warm up the saddle anyway?
