I respectfully disagree as there are two radiator fans pulling-in and evacuating hot air out of the area where the filters reside. If you use your theory then the factory layout is even worse.

Correct me if I'm wrong! One fan is for the radiator, the other is for the A/C.
I believe the A/C fan only comes on when you run the A/C.
