Only the green area will be affected by the thermostat logic. The thermostat is wide open under any conditions of interest to me. Earlier thermostat opening may delay reaching peak temperature under continuous maximum power conditions, but it won't affect the final steady state temperature, which is estabished by the heat rejection capacity of the cooling system, up to the point that the ECU starts pulling power to protect the engine.
But someone feel free to prove me wrong with logged data ...
