Not sure I understand the logic here. I think what the poster is suggesting is re-setting the throttle such that full throttle on the stick would be seen by the motor as, say, 3/4 throttle,
Im not an EE, so I cant give a highly technical answer, but as stated - power through an ESC is simply on/off phasing ... less power is more "off" phases / more power is more "on" phases. From what I understand, the FET's (which do the switching) do not like to be in a state of mostly "on" under high current applications for long duration.
