Further discussion should be off of Rafa's thread. Make a new thread or PM me if you have questions after reading it.

I was asking when I posted that route. This is the first reroute thread I'd been involved in and at the time I was thinking about what I wanted the coolant to do, not what physics wanted the coolant to do. People posted, pointing out my error, and I accepted it and thanked them for their assistance. I don't know what more you want from me, but if I've offended you by posting I'm sorry.

It isn't disregarded. In the above picture, it's illustrated as joining the lower radiator hose instead of explicitly going into the mixing manifold, but it's essentially the same thing. The difference is that by relocating the thermostat to the front, you don't need to run a hose forward along the hotside to feed into the mixing manifold, you just run it across the front.
