I suspect "all Subarus".
When I re-routed my throttle body coolant path through a temp sensor assembly I hardly lost any coolant - indicating that the throttle body coolant hoses are very high up in the system.

Does it apply to H6 only or all Libs/Subaru?

Interesting that you decided to put a temp sensor there- what made you choose that location?

In such a cold place, removing the coolant loop would have a down-side. In Queensland not so much.
The nominal benefit of taking hot coolant away from the throttle body would be slightly cooler intake air temps, but that would probably be an immeasurably small difference on account of the small interior surface area and short dwell time of air in that space.
I didn't bother until I needed the coolant path to plug a temp sensor into.

Can even spend $100+ on fancy brass bleeders
