Note on k-jet 140-160

"So if I put in a hotter thrmostat, I might get a leaner mix?"

No, I don't think so. The AAV and CPR/WUR have basically two fixed "settings"—Cold and Warm or normal running. What can vary is the transition time from cold to warm. The heating elements reduce that time.

Normal engine running temperature has no effect on Control Pressure. Running a few degrees hotter or cooler won't influence the CPR at all, IMO.
