Correct,
And that reason is that the density of the charge within the combustion chamber is sufficient to raise pressures so significantly to stop the spark being produced in the first place. This is why reducing the gap on the plug is a good idea to aid in the production of a spark undef these conditions. Exactly the same happens on turbo cars known as being blown out.
But the ignition being upgraded is not due to temperature, but due to physical effort required to ignite such a large volume of mixture. Intake temps are still really high compared with atmospheric temps regardless and my car will still start at -10degrees
That's celcius not ignition
