What you have now is better than what we were discussing on the thread you referenced. That thread discussed de-rating the resistors because the amplifier power level was so low. It was a convenience thing, I suspect.
One can always have more thermal capacity than is required. The only problem is not having enough thermal capacity, which causes parameter shifts and eventual failure. But there is no penalty for having too much thermal capacity. The resistors will all just run nice and cool.
