Resistence isn't only found in the wiring, but also the other things that I mentioned.
Those others also produce heat as a result of losses, even your Lipo Pack.
If it gets hot, it is using energy to become heated.
Heat is energy.

I was thinking the same thing, the battteries can play a part in it too. If you are light on the trigger then there may be little difference but if you have a demanding track or a basher that like's showing brute power then there will be a lot of standing starts and out of control full throttling. That's when the system is under most stress and where a higher voltage system would show cooler temps (if not, then more grunt). So both systems are highly reliant on the batteries where you are heavy on the trigger and no punch control is used.
That's my understanding anyway
