I don't believe they put much thought into airflow and overheating...

Sadly, I've actually seen a couple model laptops that were designed with one of the fan vents right above the keyboard, and only ventilated when the screen is open. VERY piss poor design, but yeah those do exist..

We don't know that it's directly on the carpet. When i want to put my thinkpad on a soft surface I use the Beano annual as a handy intermediate layer (other A4 hardbacks are available).
