They kinda do, they say that, because the coolant is so efficient at transferring energy, a data center will not need evaporative cooling.

It would be very interesting to know what the upper limit of air temperature would be.

Again, they’re not using water for its properties. Heat transfer efficiency is low on the list of priorities. Cost, both upfront and running, is the top priority

Surely you must realise heat transfer efficiency and cost are closely linked, right? You haven't told us anything we don't already know. Of course this is about saving money, that's already obvious.

Who’s us? I didn’t struggle understanding what they said at all
