Bro, to make it simple, it's like this. Imagine 100 cars travelling from KL-Penang using the old narrow road. It might take 8 hours or more, waste of fuel due to low gear usage, overtaking at low speed, driving slow at high rpm when preparing for overtaking and more. Well these might increase the engine heat due to the unstable speed and many obstacles but if you take the PLUS highway which is much wider and less resistance, you will reach the destination perhaps within 5 hours with less obstacles, constant speed.
The story goes more or less the same with the cable. The thinner the cable, the less space for the electricity to flow. Due to the electric current travels and the speed of light perhaps, it needs proper wide cable to flow smoothly. The heat that you feel on the cable is the waste of energy due to thin cable. Electric energy converted to heat energy but you don't utilize the heat energy, so it's a waste. Due to the wastage of electric to heat energy that you don't utilize, the machine needs more energy from the DB to fullfil what it needs. If the cable is thick enough where there's less energy conversion happens before it reaches the machine, logically it saves your pocket.
