I think the OP meant to make a quip about the relative unpleasantness of a bicycle commute in the winter.
In Denmark, it's not so bad actually. While winters tend to be miserable in their dark grayness, they're rarely very cold. The risk of rain is higher, but any day throughout the year could be wet. In other words, with a bit of gearing up, especially with a shower at your destination, year-round bike commuting in Denmark is completely feasible.
Not that cycling in freezing rain doesn't objectively suck.
I'd rather have "very cold" than "above freezing, but wet". If it's well below freezing it's easy to stay dry due to water's tendency to stay solid. And if you're dry, it's much easier to regulate your internal temperature.
Of course, salted roads can give you the worst of both worlds: wet & very cold.
