Dry air also increases the probability of static damage. They probably can't use outside air exchange to cool the server room.
I imagine just circulating your nice toasty air into a larger area filled with moist humans who want to be warmer would work, but it depends on your building layout.

Now let that cold dry air into the house and warm it: the relative humidity plummets. Now walk across a carpet in leather-soled shoes. Do NOT even touch metal doorknobs, let alone metal faucets!
