I have a bunch of servers in my room that turn it into a jungle if I leave my door closed overnight, but even without that I feel like just a person's own body heat would cause the temp to go up with the door closed. No?

Depends on the ventilation setup, size of the room, and how well insulated the room/house is. My old house, the room would definitely get hot if we closed the door at night. But in my current house, it gets a lot colder if we do. It's just one of those things where all those variables above will likely be very different place to place, so there will never be a universal consensus that fits for everyone.
