Do your Coolant temps and AIT's a favor

Mazda designed the exhaust sleeve so that exhaust gases can get around it, hence, my statement about that particular fact earlier.
I bet there's more exhaust gas entering the leading edge of the exhaust sleeve versus the two holes on the "ceiling" of the exhaust sleeve itself.
The exhaust gas vector is more apt to enter that way.
Keep in mind that in most set-up's, there's also a scavaging effect downstream (from the other rotor) causing a negative pressure area that makes it even harder for the exhaust gases to enter those two holes.

If he's bitching about how much exhaust gases are getting past even with his plugged holes inside the exhaust sleeve, why bother plugging the two holes in the first place?

Are you blind or retarded? And that's a serious question. Look at the pic I posted after you take your head out of your ass and then ask yourself how exhaust can get past that. Yeah yeah radiant heat etc etc but now its contained and not spreading up to the LIM heating the AITs and passing the exhaust heat into the coolant and the rest of the engine. NOT through the LIM as that sounds. Ever weld aluminum? Notice how far and FAST that heat travels?
