Exactly. I once notice a slight increase in the indicated operating
temperature during the winter months which I eventually confirmed to be
caused by the shunt through the heater core.

Pipe dream.
Bad info.

If in fact my vehicle ( any of them ) is running hot durring the summer
months, and possibly even stuck in rush hour traffic, an old trick of
the trade is to turn on the heater fans, whch will assist in cooling the
overheated coolant.

More radiator mass, more cooling fan to the larger mass makes for a
quicker cool down .

Less coolant for the radiator?

Nope.

If the system is bled properly the amount of coolant will be exactly the
same in the radiator, as in the whole system, with or without the front
and or rear heater valves open.

Good mind twisting material though.
You guys actually had me thinking on this triva.
