Is it OK at this point to introduce 'safe operating area' and the idea of 'derate'?
The ESP article is as good a place to start as any.

It may indeed help illustrate the complexity of the situation at hand.
It's unfortunate no info about application, assumptions or goals were ever given by OP. It would be much easier to be helpful if there were more pointed details available.
I'm afraid we may only be sending deeper hole digging support down into the rabbit hole.
It's all good. Hopefully, though I'm a complete douche to put up with sometimes, my limited experience helps turn on an occasional light bulb. I know I have learned a great deal and very thankful for the cranky SOB's I've come across on this forum.
You make an interesting point.
When asked a question about device ratings and usage and such, RARELY is enough information given.
And the OP can or COULD read some data sheets so like was compared TO like.
I'm fairly certain that buried in all the documentation is some reasonable answer.
