Fan Cooling better at thermal Time Outs? M2 MBP vs M2 MBA

I have an 11 inch MacBook which I love because of its lightweight design and my ability to easily ported on my backpack and work anywhere. I wish that they still made a smaller model like this. However, lately I’ve been working a lot outside in the hot Florida heat (usually under a fan and covered porch)! The six-year-old MacBook keeps taking thermal timeouts, letting me know that I need to wait until it cools down and preventing me from working.

Therefore, I’m looking at upgrading to a new M2 notebook. I’m wondering if the fan on board of the MacBook Pro will help prevent these types of thermal shut downs vs the fabless design of the MBA, which is more similar to my 11 inch MB.

Any experiences with older MBPs taking thermal time outs despite the active fan?
