The way I see it, in the event that something went wrong with the cooling system, having the engine "see" a spike in the IAT would allow the car to pull timing and start dumping fuel in an attempt to save itself. Considering the cost of the blower and the cost of moving the sensor, it made a lot of sense to me.
That being said, I took a 2 hour trip this weekend with a mix of highway and stoplight to stoplight driving and when I stopped I popped the hood and felt the supercharger.... it was not even what I would consider warm.
