Is closing the lid bad for Zenbook OLED screen when connecting to an external monitor?

Hello! Just got my 2024 Zenbook OLED 14 and I'm loving it! However, I read somewhere that OLED screens are particularly sensitive to heat. If so, then I can imagine closing the lid of my Zenbook when connected to an external display is not good for longevity of my laptop screen, but I'm wondering if this is true -I would assume Zenbooks are tested for this (after all, most people use a laptop in "clamshell mode" when connected to an external monitor). Can somebody shed some light here? Thanks a lot in advance!

From the perspective of laptop cooling, it is recommended that you open the screen to achieve the best cooling/convection effect. Thank you.
