Not sure if the two little fans add much cooling or just add noise.

At this price point the cost of 16GB instead of 12GB is tiny.
Pretty sure nVidia would throw a fit if board makers started loading up 4070, 4070ti, and 4080s with extra RAM. The things I could do with a 24GB 4070 or a 32GB 4080 though 🤤

I'm not sure if adding fans does anything. The limiting factor for further cooling beyond the standard 3 fans is probably the ambient temperature in the case, of which the additional fans do nothing to address. Makes more sense to add case fans, not GPU fans. I wonder, is it possible that the turbulence created by the 2 additional fans causes the other fans to function less efficiently? I know that there is a lot more science to this than what meets the eye.
 
Gamer's Nexus tested the bigger card with this cooler. The little fans made little difference, just extra noise.

I don't see the point in putting such a larger cooler on the RTX4070, it is a relatively light card. 200W card with a 350W+ cooler.
