I know that. The question is whether that is by intent. All other means of heating up stuff with powered buildings are carefully temperature limited, this one is not. I did try and succeeded in powering a steam-turbine with ice-makers and I think that thing was slightly electricity-positive when fed with 95C water. I have no problem with this being intended, but I would like to avoid it eventually getting patched out with no or little warning.

Good way to make liquid steel.

More like. Ice maker (even old, with 4.5kW heat) emit lot heat and may very quick reach default overheat limit (75 C). Disable overheating is easy way solve this.
