Question Engine Anti-Ice/Engine inlet

Hi,

I've a question about engine anti-ice. I understand you're supposed to use it at TAT +10 C or below (and vissible moisture). This is because of the temperature drop at the engine inlet.

However, are the inlets of those engines not designed to rise the pressure to an optimal value before it enters the compressor. And if the pressure rises, would the temperature not rise aswell?

Where I'm missing something?
