Mikael certainly touched a nerve, especially on the subject of cooling, with this article.
I guess the thinking (especially on cooling) is that it is a "matter of degrees"

Anyway - sure - if you are making a super modified car, then pull out the buzz-saw and cut away.
I believe the intent of the article was for those who are operating the car close to the original design parameters.
Obviously - this thread gets people hot under the collar, but it's all in the interest of learning.
