Slower cooling is not warming."
Oh, just stop, Jim. That is EXACTLY what is meant by "warming" in the context of climate change.
You're just quibbling about terminology, and YOUR choice of terminology is the unconventional one.

Why do you think that is?
It's because "global warming" SLOWS nighttime cooling, thereby making nights less chilly. That's what's meant by "warming."

Some hills are not worth dying on. This is one of them.
It doesn't matter that someone says "warms" when they mean "cools less," or "cools more slowly." We all know what they mean: It makes average temperatures higher. That's what we mean by "warming."

E.g., libertine language redefiners have ruined, "The child who is born on the Sabbath day, is bonnie, and bright, and good, and gay."
I've also had to reword this, for clarity:

THAT has had horrific consequences!
