Why shouldn’t leaves overheat?

Leaves overheating would cause water loss, just like how people perspire more in heated temperatures (plants perspire through their closed stomata). Plants already lose over 90% of their water through their leaves, and superheated temperatures would cause dehydration and make the plant lose a lot of the water needed to grow.
