The USB 3.0 controller on the Pi 4 is connected via PCIe.

The Raspberry Pi 4 no longer has incremental thermal throttling and was capable of running under "normal" desktop usage loads without active cooling.
Under benchmarking cooling was required to stay under the 80deg C throttle limit.

Thanks! I was especially interested in the cooling situation with RPi, and the article you linked to seems to provide some valuable information & further links in this regard (section "Heating and Cooling": https://blog.hackster.io/benchmarking-machine-learning-on-the-new-rasp…

From pictures it looks like the fan would definitely be needed. The hat is very low clearance to maintain compatibility with the official cases.

Not sure about "world's first." Here's an album released on Raspberry-Pi Zero from a couple of months back:
