In the digital age is there anything a warm polarizer can do compared to a regular polarizer and warming the image when editing?
No not really, you can achieve similar results in post, but it is almost always better to expose the image as intended in the camera compared to in post. It gives a more authentic/natural and cleaner look.

Does this have front threads for filter stacking?
Does this have front threads for filter stacking?
Yes, the Hoya 82mm Moose Peterson warm circular polarizer has front filter threads for stacking additional filters. Please be aware that due to the thickness of this filter, stacking more filters could potentially lead to vignetting issues with certain lenses (usually wider-angle lenses).

question
how do I remove it? I thought I screwed it on, but now I cant remove it by unscrewing!
It sounds like you may have screwed it in too tightly and the outer ring is probably spinning when you try to unscrew it. Please remember that it will be righty tighty lefty loosey. Try using something like a rubber band to grip the inner ring on the lens side and gently but firmly twist it in a counter clockwise direction as you are facing the filter on the lens.

question
How many stops of light does this filter induce? And are the elements made from glass or resin?
I am sorry the element looks like glass but does not say glass on any literature on the plastic container.Also did not test for stop reduction.I purchased the filter for our trip to Yellowstone last June and provided some nice photo's of the springs and Geyser's. Not good for sun sets.

question
To be honest I have not researched lens composition. I read about this filter in a magazine many years ago and now have one for every lens. Does it make a difference? I have always assumed the lens was glass. As to light loss, I agree with another response and have never faced major light loss. If used in daylight it has never altered stops. Further, I would agree that light loss would be almost nothing to maybe 1 to 1.5 stops although the latter seems rather extreme. Not sure what you are looking for to render a decision, but I would never be without this lens, especially in the fall and doing landscapes/mountains.
I am 73 years old, have had one since they first came out. Now I have four.C.B.
