Default decision time - oil coolers necessary?

currently working on oil-lines, and have started wondering if the stock oil-cooler is really necessary?

Other then reduced oil capacity...are there any other issues I may encounter in a non-autobahn continent?

thanks,
manny

not stock, running one of these from summit:
Earl s Performance 81610ERL - Earl's Performance Temp-A-Cure Fluid Coolers - Overview - SummitRacing.com


Oil Thermostat and some line routing/cleaning are all that remain for this issue
