I of the question you have to ask your self in regards to CSP and that is why and how they used them.
In the Battle britan the hurricane and spitfire could only use Max house power for 2 mins and the merlin engine if over revs by 150 RPM they would have to replace it.
Every 200 hour of operation they have to over haul the motor.
The way the game is model to the real thing is a big difference and the fact that i can run a spitfire mkIXC 25bls and full power till i run out of fuel was and is impossible to do in real life.
the only time i lower the RPM is if i get engine damage out side of that there is no needed to do it because i can fly constantly at the higher RPM means that i can cruise faster, climb fast and respond fast if i needed to. And as for over heating most engine will not over at 90% throttle even with the rads closed.
You also have to remember that to get a motor to produce 1400 HP is hard to do and even today it is hard to find (if not impossible) a piston engine that has the same weight and HP as the merlin they did it in 1945.
