Default Veedubber's Tech-Line Coatings

Mr. Hoover, I've been pondering the thermal barrier and thermal
dispersants that you've advocated several times. Ponder with me for a
moment if you will.

I've got an experimental engine, with an experimental cooling setup. Do
know for guaranteed that the cooling will be sufficient, so I'll be
keeping a close eye on the water and oil temperatures. But the coatings
will cause more heat to be dumped into both. How would a typical
homebuilder know the difference between elevated temps due to a more
efficient heat transfer and inadequate cooling?

Then there is the issue of what the redline temperatures are set for.
In the rotary, it is for the main bearings. Would the barriers and
dispersants change the thermal characteristics in such a way that the
temps readings taking in the normal places look adequate, but in reality
critical parts are being fried?

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)."
