Veles is more similar to Earth despite it’s tidal locking, as atmospheric circulation keeps most of the planet save for the most sunward and nightward extremes at temperatures humans would find liveable.
I suspect that if we find habitable tidal locked planets, mostly it would be a matter of the subsolar zone being the habitable part, and a fair part of the sunward hemisphere iced over. The important thing is that the cold night side not become so cold that air starts to liquefy. Carbon dioxide and water freezing out on the cold side could be a problem but active geology bringing deposits into the day side might enable decent levels of both CO2 and water.
The trouble with trying to warm the limbs of a dayside at the cost of sacrificing the subsolar center to a hot zone is that the limbs will have a majr temperature gradient, and winds will be severe. This might be OK for native life, which just has to adapt to the fact of unending, relentless gale force winds. If instead we have a central warm zone under eternal noon, the immediate subsolar zone will be in the "eye of the storm" as it were with relatively gentle winds; by the time these build up to hurricane force we will have long before crossed the tundra and glacial boundaries.
The cold side, once we get a decent distance from the terminator, ought to be pretty uniform and fairly calm; there is no heat differential there.
Basically the warm zone air is lofted by eternal sunlight heating the surface; warm air absorbs moisture and rises, cooling and expanding thus forming clouds and rain, so the hot zone tends to retain moisture which wrings out of the air before it reaches stratospheric heights--the latent heat is released with condensation, thus driving the air up higher. Now the high altitude pretty dry air slides down the slope of lesser rising over cooler limb landscapes, over the sunset terminator, and falling, is heated and compressed. The cold surface is always absorbing heat from sinking air, which grows quite dense as it chills, and thus the nightside is at higher pressure on the surface as layers of air from the dayside accumulate. At the surface therefore, winds blow back into the day hemisphere, pouring over the terminator and converging on the warm zone. At some point it meets the warmed air and chilling it, a cold front sliding under a warm front, causes precipitation--beyond this rain wall, the air has been warmed and refills the air fountain.
So the habitable zone is within the rain walls, and wind speeds should be checked and air temperatures reasonably moderated, going from near freezing chilly to tropical warm at the center.
The warm zone might be only a small fraction of the whole globe, say a quarter its area maximum, but I think life could better establish itself in a subsolar Eden within say 30 degrees of the sun zenith point. It might help if the tidal locking is not perfect, and there is some revolution of the zenith point due to planetary spin axis being somewhat off the orbital plane, and some eccentricity of the orbit causing longitude variations, so we get an ellipse, causing seasons. The central tropical zone should be pretty consistently warm, the effect of the zenith revolving around is to give the limbs a summer as it passes nearer to one region then another. At any given time I suppose everything within 30 degrees of the zenith should be about full temperature. The major thing affecting habitability might not be temperature but wind intensity; a shifting zenith should stir up wind direction a bit.
Again going for a higher subsolar zone temperature and shifting the habitable zones outward puts those moderate temperature zones into the intense winds coming in from the cold hemisphere.
Veles of course is an alien world and its organisms can just bloody well adapt I guess. If we have life evolving in the seas they won't be directly affected by gale force winds in the air above them, except to the degree these make waves in the water; the oceans would be well aerated by this chop I guess. Organisms colonizing land have to just adapt somehow, with good grips on the ground I guess. The sunward zones can be pretty hot and biochemistry can just adapt to it, evolving higher temperature proteins and so forth; as long as water is liquid I would guess cytoplasm can adapt to tolerate near boiling temperatures--certainly there is plenty of solar energy to feed processes! On the cold side, there is no energy source but thermal vents, or preying on stray organisms wandering into the cold zones. By that same token, few organisms are consuming oxygen on the surface on the cold side; most life there would be under the sea at thermal vents and anaerobic.
Human visitors might be hard put to find any suitable spot for a base station; I suppose that even in a very windy temperate zone, landforms will create shelter here and there. And all that windpower does lie ready to hand to provide steady power in electric form.
Anyway odds are the planetary biochemistry is deeply incompatible with Terran biochemistry and humans would have to remain in sealed environments.
