Because not much of the total heat output is rejected by the oil. the oil  
cooler is there to cool and protect the oil, there isn't enough heat capacity in 
 the lube system to make a big difference. Although, certainly, a better oil  
cooler is a good thing in its own right.

I noticed on this link  that there is a kit for an oil cooler.  Why 
can't the cooling gains  we seek be obtained by additional, larger oil 
coolers in the place of  increased air flow?

I admit, at this point, I don't know  beans.
