There is cooling capacity in the quantity of oil. Less recirculation of the same oil means more time cooling off. An exaggerated example would be recirculating a quart of liquid compared to a 5 gallon bucket or a lake to an ocean with temp changes. I haven't gotten to excercize it like I want, but even averaging 95-105mph (avg) in the Mojave desert driving home with temps hovering between 90 and 100 depending on elevation, the car never went higher than 220. I can't say how much is attributable to the larger pan, but I can say that with more oil, it's not so critical to get a change every 3750m. The pan fits with my sway bars and fits with the 2012+ cars. It also sits higher then a tradional pan spacer. I can't find much fault in it. Yeah it's expensive, so was everything else I bought for the car.
