"none of the chips in an organic package dissapate more than about 15-20 watts"

You should know yourself that you are wrong on this.
P-III happily dissipate up to 50-60W.
The plastic carrier for flip-chip mounting technology
is not supposed to dissipate anything. The main thermal
path is still through the top of silicon into attached
heat sink. The secondary thermal path through the carrier
is probably 1/10 of that, so it's thermal
condictivity should not matter much.
