Assuming we're talking about outdoors, that's not the case for me in my area. There's only so much layers can do. You have to limit exposure. Plus all those layers can be a chore. By comparison, while summer heat can be uncomfortable, it's rarely deadly and far easier to stay safe.

I beg to differ. I've literally lived outside in < -30C, over time, without much more equipment than my clothes, a hammock, and a gas burner to boil water.

You have a limit to exposure, of course, but it's not a limit you can't comfortably overcome with relatively simple equipment (read: layers).
