You have just been unlucky Sylvain,colling system will stand much more pressure than the cap say's or they would be bursting more regular if they got slightly over the rating of the cap.

I have noticed cap pressure's have risen and a lot of cars do have high pressure systems and as you rightly say the heat transfer is better and the boil point raised.I suspect its all to do with emissions and better combustion.
