Why is it incorrect to say that insulation keeps out cold?
Because in science, cold doesn't exist. You can't make cold, you can only remove heat. But in human language we've made words to describe the absences too. Dark is the absence of light. Cold is the absence of heat. Vacuum is the absence of all material. So insulation can't keep the cold out, since the cold doesn't exist. What you can do though is keep the heat in. Heat is a real thing. You can make heat.
