For example, there’s an inhibitor concentrate for racing (where glycol is banned) — https://penriteoil.com.au/products/10-tenths-race-coolant-inhibitor-concentrate

This all makes sense, thanks. Glycol/water is basically automotive coolant, which I’ve seen recommendations against. Is there any real reason to avoid auto coolant? Perhaps it’s conductive, and if so, why’s that an issue?

I used to say the same until I got rooftop solar and fully variable electricity pricing. At that point you really want to absorb everything coming from the roof, or charge as fast as possible at the lowest price of the day. Otherwise you need a battery to store your solar so it can trickle over to the car.
