When everything gets heavier you need heavier brakes. And that's rotating mass.
My original question was inquiring as to why the newer vehicles would have a higher capacity (and thereby heavier) cooling system. The answer was given that newer vehicles produce more power, and it's logical to assume that they therefore produce more heat and would need more cooling capacity.

Sorry if I nerded out a little on the explanation there, but that's the gist of the conversation.
