Discussion on thermostat has been over stressed times without number on Nairaland.
A thermostat is expected to maintain the internal temperature of a engine at a certain range regardless of the external ambient temperature .
so a thermostat is the same thing for the same car all of the world .
As part of a regular schedule maintaince of a car ,a thermostat is a serviceable part that is expected to be replaced every one year as stated in most car manual. but if you prefer to let it fail before replacement ,u might not be able to arrest the overheating situation and can lead to bigger issue like head gasket rupturing ,engine block warping etc.

CAR CARE TIPS

Park in the shade

Of course, a garage is always the ideal place to park your car. But if one isn’t available, minimize interior damage from UV sunlight and heat by always trying to park your car in the shade. If no shade is available or if you find parking under a tree results in bird droppings, use a car shade to minimize the sun’s impact. As a bonus, you’ll have a cooler car to step into on hot sunny days. Car shades come in two basic types: those that you unfold and place on the front windshield and rear window, or pleated types that attach to the windshield posts (with adhesive), window frames (with Velcro), or the windows themselves (with suction cups).

Head gasket don't just go rupture unless there is a hidden overheating cause so it better to troubleshoot the root first which can range from leaking cooling system ,stuck closed thermostat ,faulty fan which in the case of the op and also u mentioned tropicalized thermostat ,there is nothing like tropicalized thermostat but stuck open or stuck closed thermostat fault .

you are wrong sir
