Devil atr: why is ITT limited in hotel mode

hi
was thinking as to why is the ITT limited to 715 in hotel mode. otherwise it can go till 800.
If the prop not running & hence not cooling theory goes : this doesn't hold as with prop rotating, if ITT allowed is 800, so it means that this is the temp it can take. now if the prop was turning or not the temp should be limited to 800, ??????

It appears this may have something to do with the cooling of other parts ( gene, oil cooler etc)

am i missing something ?
