Rookie question here, if the engine shares the oil with the clutch friction plates and they wear, how does the friction material that’s worn off and floating about not damage the rest of the engine?

Some bikes do come with additional oil coolers on top of the coolant radiators (some have fins, others have a second oil cooler). But as you say, air movement around the bike is the key to keeping things within acceptable temperatures.
Thankfully for my Jeep, it has a coolant radiator, engine oil cooler and transmission fluid cooler - all separate from each other. This is to work around low speed off-road work where air flow is minimal.
My point was I don't think you are breaking down the oil. Additionally super low stress typically city riding.
Also riding in Auckland should only be done at 3 to 4am in the morning of a Tuesday.
Don't you look at my accountant.
He's the only one I've got.
Synthetics will easily take 150°. But coolant won't.
