The difference I think is what's being considered 'cold'. Under 7*C (45* in weird units for you folks) most all seasons are already starting to get hard and it's time to put on true winter tires; no matter the conditions. Once you get into snow territory then you really should have winter tires. Lots of people think "oh it's fine, I can control the car ok" but then if they get convinced to try real winter tires they realize just how much better they are.
This is why I have 3 sets of tires; summer, winter, track!
