It looks like the engine can be as cool or cooler than one using a water mix and at the same time the coolant can be hotter coming out of the engine because of the lower specific heat.

I am assuming that there has to be a much larger difference between the coolant entering and leaving than with water to remove the same about of heat from the engine.
