Warm water is the waste product because it's easier dump the water than to cool the water. Returning the warm water to a usable state is much more expensive at scale.
you might be right but some numbers might back up your claim. I doubt that servers could heat water as much as a nuclear reactor. datacenter coolers certainly don't have to pressurize the water to prevent it from boiling, it doesn't get that hot.
