I used to do that back in college. The frozen pizza said Do not
microwave 'Challenge accepted!'

But if the same energy is going in the room, won't it have the same
effect, Door open/shut? The furnace may still run it's normal cycle,
but should run for less? My gut says opening the door is better, but
I'm trying to think through the Math, and it's saying no.

your net energy consumption will be lessened by opening the door.
with it closed it wont change the ambient temperature enough to
affect the thermostat thresholds. With it open, it may raise them
enough to delay or skip a heating cycle.

Probably same net effect as you say.

We're in the single digits in chicagoland today, and I just
made my self lunch in my oven.
The oven is electric, so there is no outside vent. After I'm
done, should I open the oven door, to let the heat into the
room quickly, or keep it closed so that it radiates heat for
longer?
I think that the math says that the same energy will be put
into the environment regardless, since there is nowhere else
for it to go. So will the room be warmed by the same amount if
i keep the door closed vs open?
The things I think about when I'm hungry....
