Nor was I necessarily intending to have a discussion with anyone. My intention was to inform the readers of the forum of an observation made in one specific test of the game's 'temperature effects' setting relating to one specific aeroplane, and to suggest that others conduct similar tests in order to verify my findings or otherwise in other aircraft within the game.
Please feel free to test this yourself with any aircraft of your choice within the game and report your findings accordingly.

Did a quick test with temp effects off and got similar results. The real life Spitfire II PNs: The Spitfire II could show up to 125° coolant temp for climbing for 1 hour, and 90° for oil.
135° coolant and 105° oil for 5 minutes emergency boost
And the Pilot's Notes General on engine handling - issued with all Pilot's Notes, and always used in conjunction with them:
Note on climb speed and how engine temperature could be improved by adopting a higher climbing speed, plus radiator settings:
