What about when walking to your stand? The slightest amount of exercise causes people to sweat. Most people also sweat when their skin is in contact with non breathable material such as neoprene(or a rain jacket etc).
Another thing you probably aren't thinking about is that when using a wetsuit in water the absolutely coldest temperature around you is 0 degrees and it is more likely the coldest you have experienced is probably closer to 5-10 degrees. Compare that to minus air temps and it quickly becomes apparent that standing outside in winter is much colder then in any water.
There is a reason that high end winter gear is built the way it is(multiple wicking layers) and it is the complete opposite of neoprene in that regard. If you are cold just buy better gear. With the right gear you could sit out there in -40 and still be warm and you won't have to worry about sweating and then freezing to death if you have to do something physical(truck breaks down etc).
Or don't listen to us, go try a wetsuit and then remember this thread when you are hating life lol.
