Coolant Lines for heating throttle body.

I notice that they sell a gasket for the throttle body to insulate it from the intake manifold to keep intake temps down. But on the other hand they also pump hot coolant through the throttle body to heat it in cold climates. Wouldn't that totally defeat the purpose of the gasket and why not just cap those lines or just loop them without them going through the throttle body if you live in a warm climate???
