2012s on lots....where are the oil coolers?

You're right once you've paid the risk cost of running lines out front for an air cooler, you could just as easily upsize the cooler if you need to instead of adding on a water cooler.

However: I originally installed a 19-row air cooler (+thermo plate, and now +blockoff plate too in the colder months) for street and light track use, and I want a bit more cooling before next summer. If we didn't have an easy water kit, I'd probably just bump up to a 25 or 34 and need to use blockoff plates more often. Adding the water cooler seems like an even better option to me (assuming it isn't ridiculously overpriced) because it may just let me leave my 19-row in place, get sufficient track cooling, and actually help with the overcooling in cold situations rather than hurt.

It would allow me to at least go to a track without investing in an air/oil cooler for a little bit just to get the experience. Then I could later just add a 19 row cooler and not necessarily have to go up to 25 row.
