I would be more concerned about lipo failures than having a setup that runs 20 degrees cooler than what is already acceptable. The more cells there are in a pack, the more vunerable the cells are to undervoltage, since a weak cell has to go way below the safe limit before the mean voltage of the cells in the pack triggers the cutoff.

With higher voltage you can run a lower KV motor and this setup will pull less amps meaning less heat than a lower voltage and higher KV motor, and since your motor is pulling less amps with the higher voltage setup you can run a lower capacity pack to get the same runtimes. Your motor will pull a certain amount of watts all the time, Volts X Amps = Watts, the average 1515 or XL size BL motor will pull 1500 watts, if you want to compare different setups you can divide the 1500 by the voltage amounts and this will get you in the ball park there are other variables Gearing, weight of vehicle, wheel size.
