I can't give you a technical explanation, but partial loads on the esc are what heat it up. Allowing the esc to be "wide open" and just flow power is less stressful on it. Turning down your epa effectively makes your esc a partial load at alll times and isn't good for it. I wish I could give you technical terms and what not, but this is my farmboy answer.
