It's important to think about lifetime of these parts in the thousands of hours. Running at 100C,they will fail prematurely. When stuffed into a small vintage amp chassis that is cooking hot on its own, your ambient temperature may be more than 50C, hence the recommendation for a bigger heatsink.
Another fun problem is when the tubes themselves heat up the chassis where you are trying to sink heat, this just makes things even worse.
