>because temperature is dependent on actually being able to transfer KE

The basic definition of temperture is related to the statistical average of kinetic energy of a system.

Even if the objects in the system are not transfering kinetic energy to each other, you could define a temperture. Conversly, you could use a more fundemental defintion of temperture which is related to degrees of freedom. Your system probably has some degrees of freedom, that arise from things other then kinetic motion.
(So you can define temperture in a multitude of ways)

Assuming you stick with the basic KE related defintion, your idea is analagous to the temperture of free space. The Temperture is about 2.7 K (pretty fucjking cold). However, since there isn't too much shit is free space, the ability to transfer "heat or cold" to you, would be alot slower, then if you were in some liquid that was 2.7 Kelvin. Make sense?

Free space, and the Liquid both have the same temperture, however, their ability to transfer heat is different.

ohh yeah
