Oil cools the bottom end, coolant the top end. And combustion control is dependent on stable operating conditions per design. Coolant heater thus always vital by comparison to desirable but non-vital engine oil heater.

Vehicle out of wind and with coolant heater in use covers most of what’s needed.
