The additional oil has to have some positive affect on cooling.

There is not alot of additional volume in those coolers, not sure exactly how much in this application but I know that when installing at transmission cooler on different vehicles of larger sizes, it still was not that much additional volume.
I would venture a guess to say we are talking less than a 1/4 of a quart, maybe not even a 1/10th on a small cooler like the ones here. That is of course a WAG but its not going to a lot.
The additional oil volume is likely not going to hurt anything, nor is the the additional cooling from this unit in most climates. It is also not likely to benefit much unless oil temps are being pushed around 225-250F.
I would consider this on a oil/air cooled machine a lot more so than water cooled unit as well.
