It was engineered for passive cooling, even if just barely. I don’t think you need something as elaborate as a case fan when the whole thing is perforated like that. A single USB fan blowing on the case from 6 inches away is sufficient to keep my formerly toasty model barely warm to the touch.
They’re also engineered with the assumption that there is nothing within a 6 in radius and it is kept in a 70F room. Those are assumptions that often aren’t true and lead to them overheating all the dang time.
