The cooler is there more to heat up the water for the heater matrix quicker than keeping the oil cool.

Don't be silly, if that was so you'll find the water flowing through the water 'cooled' turbo is going to heat the water up quicker than the oil based water 'warmer ' does as its directly in the exhaust gas stream...
The oil cooler is there to cool the oil.

The oil cooler is there to cool the oil.
It is also there to warm the water up faster during warm up, and keep the relationship between the two temperatures closer. It's a heat exchanger more than a "cooler" Perhaps I was ambiguous, but unless under extreme thrashing-the-engine use, the oil "cooler" is keeping the oil warmer. I have seen the resulls of removing it remember... ie actually DONE IT.
