the scoop is located right above the brake fluid. definately prevents brake fluid boiling. what do you rind confusing about this?

Most of the brake fluid is already in the brake lines/caliper. The brake fluid in the reservoir probably never even makes it to the brake lines.

first: stop calling him a homo. its his choice not yours. if the scoop makes his car look bad then it only makes your fit look better.
second: yes its TOO many scoops IMO, but at least the scoop at hand is different than most cars.
think about this: why would honda make a little plastic piece like that anyways? i bet the OEM cover has a use.

does the fluid level in the reservoir drop lower when the brakes are applied because more liquid volume is being pushed into the brake lines and the pressure raises? i think it would have a slight affect on brake fluid temp but nobody measures that fluid.
to each his own!

Not at all confused. Just thinking how ludicrous it was that you actually came up with a purpose for that cowl.

On top of that, your purpose is useless since the cowl will NOT be able tocool brake fluid. He will have more luck cooling his brakes with guided air ducts then that small slit cooling his brake fluid.
