Hot air=less dense air, less O2, less O2=slower car.

I still disagree, unless you are going... Over 150 (?) the benefit of hot, less air isn't going to help.

But we can agree to disagree. And it's not my forte, so big chance I am wrong.

You're absolutely right on a practical-useful level. I'm sort of teasing the "squeeze all possible HPs/performance out of my car" crowd. You know, the folks that debadge for weight savings or aerodynamics etc.
