xBuddy Box Ventilation

I have my mk4S in an enclosure. I have the power supply mounted outside of the enclosure to theoretically extend its life .

Does anyone add a fan to help ventilate the xBuddy box? Am I overthinking it? That tends to happen regularly.

I looked at that and it has me inspired to make a new cover with a 40mm fan setup at the bottom, and a simple vent at the top. The idea is to just have air moving through the box. I'm not doing super hi-temp printing. The thought is to make sure the box itself isn't soaking too much in it's own heat.
