And why do you think all those Intel (and AMD) processors have built-in thermal throttling, especially on mobile versions ? . Also, we have thermal monitoring and CPU governors so, if done right, you should not be able to fry your device in real life, UNLESS you ignore all the failsafes and use it in a way not meant by the manufacturer (and that's what overclocks and manually pegged full speed are). That's what I understood the warning was supposed to mean.
