How they stated it, though, is really stupid, and is a case of making alot of noise about nothing ... and stating it backwards perhaps to deliberately confuse the customer and hopefully gaining a sale because of the long-winded description that means that it has to be good ... right? They should have summed it up as "a more efficient water block."

No, if the heat is, as you put it, pulled more efficiently from the processor, then a lower temperature differential will be required between the cpu and the water (the average water temp for a given heat load being determined by the radiator, the ambient air temp and the airflow, NOT the waterblock), thus the cpu can be cooler while still dissipating the same heatload into the water.
The efficiency of the waterblock determines how much hotter the cpu must be than the water, NOT the other way round.
