I'm in the process of converting my remote oil cooler to fan cooled. After thinking about the wiring with a thermo-switch on the cooler outlet, I asked myself "Why" since I have an oil-bypass thermostat after the oil filter. What's wrong with wiring the fan to run all the time, allowing the by-pass thermostat to control oil temperature?

Longer warmup for the oil. The thermostats usually all have oil moving to keep the cooler filled. Otherwise you could suddenly have low to no pressure as it filled.
