OK, so what’s with the reversal of the seasonality of the temps with increasing altitude?

Global warming theory states that as the troposhere (surface to 10k) warms, because of atmospheric energy budget, this causes the stratoshere (10k to 50k) to cool.

I suppose this would apply seasonal as well, so summertime troposphere warms, stratosphere cools.
