First, the sentence above should have been, "Do 'not' know for
guaranteed the the cooling will be sufficient,"
But I understand better now. I was thinking that the inside of the
rotors and coolant passages would be coated with the dispersant to help
pull the heat out of the metal and into the cooling fluids. The fluid
temps would be higher, even though the actual metal wouldn't be.

This is by far the hardest lesson about freedom. It goes against
instinct, and morality, to just sit back and watch people make
mistakes. We want to help them, which means control them and their
decisions, but in doing so we actually hurt them (and ourselves)."
