You might solve 1 issue and cause two problems. Just like IMS issues is to Porsche cutting cost on engine head castings .

As a friendly reminder, re-read yourself on the heater core part. Heaters(cabin radiator) and engine are on a closed loop system. No thermostat in between. In the morning, you will feel heat at around 100F on the cluster.
The heater uses a small bypass from the engine, but when the thermostat opens, more warm water is in motion within the cooling system and the engine, heat comes up in greater amounts within the cabin; so the thermostat does affect how much and how soon you sense heat coming from the car.

And, regardless of what you do for a living, it is never a good idea to look down your nose at anyone.......................
