It is indeed harder for a deer (or any other animal) to detectyour odor as it gets cold. I am not saying that they cannot, just that it is harder to do so. Odor molecules are just like everything else in the world, they contract when cooled and expanded when heated.

I have no idea how much of a difference it makes, I just know it does make a difference.

I agree.
Maybe up to a certain point. Try running scent trailing dogs when it's 90 degrees, and dry as a bone.

It's a combination of temp, humidity, pressure, moisture in the ground, etc.
