Regardless of flow each drop of water spends the exact amount of time in the waterblock, in the radiator and absorbs the same amount of heat. Thus it will have the exact same temperature as it leaves the radiator regardless of flow (within reason anyway).

I'm beginning to see...
It seems to me that the flow must be in a specific range. Not too slow, but not too fast.
So how does that explain the sweet spot of rads, as per the link above?
Also, if we're going to use higher flow rates, then we'd have to consider the pressure rating of the rads. It's not a concern to anyone, yet...
