If your hands are cold, the they are cold. If your feet are cold, they are cold. Both are relatively small areas of the body, at the most extreme ends of it.

the core temp thing has not been my experience at all. I like to run my core a little on the cool side so I don't sweat. Warm shoes and gloves keep the extremities warm. I've ridden in really low temps with warm shoes and leg warmers and had no issues with my feet at all. Once it gets to the sub-teens, I'll go to two layers on my legs, but above that I'd rather not.
I always wondered why the body seems to be so quick to give up on the hands and feet, I feel like they are necessary to life.
