Lifetimes of most electronic and mechanical components are reduced at higher temperatures for multiple reasons. Temperature cycling also potentially creates additional damage. I'm not sure if the camera stores the number of overheating events, but it would be nice to have. Only time will determine what if anything tends to fail more frequently.

Maybe that's why the Three Blind Mice guy raised a concern on his A7S iii review video. He seemed bothered about the temperatures recorded in a couple tests people have done recently.
Maybe a couple brands are allowing bodies to run slightly too hot hoping to get away with it, and other maybe running too cool to err on the safe side.
On the other hand, I'm well aware how hot the interior of dark red, blue and black vans, cars and trucks get in summer. Inside the passenger compartment and under the hood, where there's scores of connections, electronics, sensors and computers. And the components of most last a decade or two, 100,000 to 300,000 miles. Obviously cameras look different. But I think manufacturing has stepped up its game across the board.
