Some people need to understand this a little better!!! He isn't talking about the deans plug heat being transferred to his motor!!! Plugs have resistance, resistance causes heat but it also causes a drop in voltage. A drop in voltage causes amp draw to go up, Amp draw going up increases heat! If voltage is dropping because of enough resistance and increasing amp draw it will heat up all components in the system.
I use deans on 1/18 stuff, I tried them on 1/8 and didn't like them. They do get warmer than my Traxxas plugs. The Traxxas plugs offer a lot more surface area than deans do, they also stay plugged together better and are easier to plug together in a rushed battery swap.
