If the thermal conductivity is high, I'd expect the heat to be conducted away from the source until the whole bottom of the pan reached the same temperature. Why would that lead to more "hot spots" than a low conductivity material (which wouldn't conduct the heat away from it's source)? (You could probably test this by using infra-red film in your Leica...)
