In general, moving air is a lot _easier_ to heat up, according to the
laws of thermodynamics. It has nothing to do with the actual movement,
though. It's just the heated air being replaced by cooler air.

That's what you probably mean. As long as you have circulation, you can
hope to leak heat to a window or door.

Yes, since you don't have circulation, you're not really leaking much
heat to other parts of the house.
