I strongly disagree!!!

if the data on the disk was initially spread evenly, the chances of a drip
are minimized by a ration of 3.14.  this value is in proportion to the time
the disc is left to bake under direct sunlight...

on the subject of red light removal;  on most modern day drives, the most
appropriate time to remove them would be when the GREEN light is flashing or
under circumstances that you think the disc is spinning around in its bay -
often a sign of " a hard cooked CD "
