On a road bike, with your hands being out in the wind 100% of the time, it's pretty hard to keep your hands warm. Any little air infiltration will lead to cold hands. It's impossible with so much stitching on gloves to make it airtight to the level that there is no air intrusion. Pogies solve all that to the point where you probably will be able to ride with summer half gloves much of the time.

It's not impossible i did it to mine. My snowmobile gloves were good down to about 25F mostly because of wind going through. Now they are good down to 0-5F with some modifications.
But your point is still valid pogies can do better than gloves.
