Mass & Volume, similiar to less oil is going to cause more friction...less liquid is going to cause (or allow) higher temps...if there is an air pocket then the air is instantly going to be the same temperature as it's surrounding while the liquid is not as easily changed...it's not an air-cooled engine, it's water cooled with a thick water jacket that surrounds the cylinder wall, it needs the constant flow of liquid from the radiator to cool it down.
A half pot of water is going to boil alot faster than a whole one even though the stove/fire is the exact same temperature.
or maybe try this analogy, take a hot water hose in the sun...turn the water on halfway and it won't cool the hose down near as fast as if you turned the flow on more....
