Dunno about car engine manufacturers, but, for what it's worth, aircraft 
engine manufacturers recommend draining the oil while hot. Maybe it is 
holding the dirt in suspension and allows it to drain. But this is pure 
conjecture on my part.

Besides, the cold beer mug will make the burnt fingers feel better.
